Using the TouchScreen
Your ARCHOS 704 WIFI device is equipped with a touchscreen.
Most screen areas will react when you tap on them using the included stylus or your fingernail.
Below is a description of the main tactile screen areas and a few tips on how to use the touchscreen.
Interface Description & Tactile Screen Areas
Status Bar
•In the top right corner of the screen, the status bar indicates the volume, the battery level, the current time, the playback status of your device, etc.
•This area is not tactile, except for the cross, which may appear at the right end of the status bar for you to exit the current screen.
Tabs
•In the top left corner of the screen, the tabs area shows other available ap- plications and screens (Setup Screen, Home Screen, etc.). They vary, depending on where you are in the interface.
•You can tap on the 
icon to switch between the available screens.
•You can also tap directly on one of the tabs to access the corresponding screen.
Contextual Menu
•In the lower right corner of the screen, the contextual menu area shows the menu icons: the available options will vary, depending on where you are in the interface.
•To execute a menu icon’s function, simply tap on it. In order to display a text description of the icon, tap on the MENU word.
