About the Touchscreen
Your tablet comes equipped with an easy-to-use touchscreen.
English
Our capacitive multi-touchscreen requires gentle fi ngertip
touch on the glass screen to activate tablet’s functions.
Multiple fi ngers may be used to perform gestures (e.g.
2-fi nger picture zoom).
Please note: Your fi nger tips must not be covered. A
stylus may be used. Make sure it is for capacitive touchscreens.
To avoid damaging the screen, do not touc h it
with excessive force or with any object other
than your fi nger. For best response, make sure
your hands are clean before using the touchscreen controls.
Protective Film
A thin fi lm has been applied to the touchscreen to protect
it during shipping. The protective fi lm should be removed
before use. To remove it, simply take a corner of the fi lm
and peel it away from the screen.
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 fi ngertip to manipulate icons,
buttons, menu items, the on-screen keyboard, and other
items displayed on the screen.
You can perform the following actions on the touchscreen
using your fi ngertip or appropriate 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 fi ngertip.
Touch and
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 fi ngertip until the action
occurs.
Page 8 Getting To Know The Internet Tablet
Page 9
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
fi ngertip, move your fi ngertip on the
screen until the item reaches its target
destination.
Swipe: Swipe up/down on the screen to scroll
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 fi ngertip across the
screen without lifting your fi ngertip.
Do not pause on the screen with your
fi ngertip at the initial 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 section will cause the browser to
zoom and fi t that section to the width
of the screen.
About the Orientation Sensor
The tablet contains a sensor that will automatically
change the orientation of most screens as you rotate the
tablet. The sensor works best when the tablet is rotated
perpendicular to the ground (i.e., when the tablet is held
upright and not fat on its back).
The orientation sensor can be turned on and off in the
Display settings menu.
