About the Touchscreen
Your tablet comes equipped with an easy-to-use touchscreen.
Our capacitive multi-touchscreen requires gentle ngertip
touch on the glass screen to activate tablet’s functions.
Multiple ngers may be used to perform gestures (e.g.
2-nger picture zoom).
To avoid damaging the screen, do not touch it
with excessive force or with any object other
than your nger. 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.
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 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 ngertip.

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 at on its back).
The orientation sensor can be turned on and off in the
Accessibility settings menu.
