Working with the Tablet PC
The Tablet PC’s pen is an electronic instrument that can be damaged if used improperly. Handle the pen with care.
The following list contains guidelines for proper pen handling:
•Do not gesture with the pen.
•Do not use the pen as a pointer.
•Do not use the pen on surfaces other than the screen of the Tablet PC.
•Do not try to turn the thumb grip on the pen. The thumb grip is used to place the pen in its slot and to take it out of the slot.
•Never store the pen with the tip bearing the weight of the pen (e.g. with the tip down in a pen holder). If the pen is stored with the tip pointing down, this may have
an adverse effect on the pen mechanism (particularly under high temperatures). In this case the pen tip may react as though it is constantly being pressed down. To avoid damage, the pen should be stored in the pen slot when not in use.
The pen can be influenced by electromagnetic fields (cursor quivers or jumps). There may be a few areas on the screen where the cursor quivers slightly in spite of pressing the pen down firmly.
The screen responds to entries made with the tip of the finger or the pen when the tip of the finger or the pen is in direct contact with the screen.
You can use the pen to run all functions for which you would otherwise use a mouse. The pen does not support erasing functions.
