Touchscreen tips

The standby screen is also a great place to get accustomed to the InteractPad.

To select an item touch the icon on the touchscreen accurately. Your KF700 will vibrate slightly when it recognises you’ve touched an option.

• There’s no need to press too hard, the

InteractPad is sensitive enough to pick up on a light yet ﬁ rm touch.

• Use the tip of your ﬁ nger to touch the

option you require. Be careful not to touch any other keys around it.

• When the screen light is off, press the

lock/unlock key on the right hand side of the phone to restore the standby screen.

• Don’t cover the phone with a case or cover

as the InteractPad will not work with any material covering it.
