About the Touchscreen
Your tablet comes equipped with an easy-to-use touch-
screen which allows access to the tablet’s functions. Use
your nger tip (or a stylus) to touch the area of the screen
where a control icon is displayed. If you touch and hold
the screen, it will register as a continuous button press.
To avoid damaging the screen, do not touch it
with excessive force or with any object other
than your nger or a stylus. For best response,
make sure your hands are clean before using
the touchscreen controls.
Protective Film
A thin lm has been applied to the touchscreen to protect
it during shipping. The protective lm should be removed
before use. To remove it, simply take a corner of the lm
and peel it away from the screen
Using the Stylus
A stylus is included for your convenience. You can use
the tip of the stylus to make precise selections on the
touchscreen.
The stylus is stored in the top left corner of the tablet.Return the stylus to its storage compartment when it
is not in use.
Touchscreen Actions
You can control the functions of the tablet by using
the touchscreen in combination with the three touch
keys located on the bezel. To control the tablet with the
touchscreen, use your ngertip or stylus to manipulate
icons, buttons, menu items, the onscreen keyboard, and
other items displayed on the screen.
You can perform the following actions on the touchscreen
using your ngertip or stylus.
Touch: To activate an on-screen item (e.g.,
application icons, buttons, menu
items, and the letter/symbols of the
on-screen keyboard), simply touch
them with your ngertip or stylus.

Hold: Some on-screen items have an alternate action if you touch and hold
it (e.g., opening an alternate menu, or
to activate the drag function). To touch
and hold an item, touch the item and
do not lift your ngertip/stylus until the
action occurs.
Drag: Drag an on-screen item to change its
position (e.g., an application icon on
the home screen).
To drag an item, touch and hold it for
a moment, then without lifting your
ngertip/stylus, move your ngertip/

through a list. On some screens,
you may be able to swipe left/right to
change the view.
To swipe, touch the screen and then
quickly move your ngertip/stylus
across the screen without lifting your
ngertip/stylus. Do not pause on the
screen with your ngertip/stylus at
the intial point of contact or you may
accidentally drag an item instead.
Double-tap: Quickly tap the screen twice on a
webpage or other application screen to
zoom (the application must support the
double-tap/zoom function). Within the
browser, double-tapping a webpage
