Scroll Mouse

Your computer comes with a scroll mouse. The scroll mouse directs a cursor on the Windows desktop. You use the mouse to move quickly and easily through a document or Web site.

Instead of using the scroll bar to display pages, move the scroll wheel on your mouse forward or backward through a document or Web site to save time.

Tip

Some mouse functions may not work with all software.

Making Screen Selections

Click by pressing and releasing the left mouse button quickly one time. You will hear a single clicking sound.

Accessing Software and Files

Double-click by pressing and releasing the left mouse button twice, quickly.

Scrolling

Click by pressing and holding down the left mouse button with the cursor positioned on a scroll bar.

Click and hold down on the scroll handle (the box in a scroll bar area) to position text. Or single-click the arrow buttons to move up or down one line at time.
