•Using a silicone finger with a diameter of 1.6 cm: 50 g.

Caution

Only touch one point on the touch screen and not several points at one time. You may otherwise trigger unintended reactions.

Do not touch the screen in the following situations:

Notice

Touching the touch screen with hard or pointed objects can damage the screen and thus impair its functionality. Only operate the touch screen with your fingers (even with gloves) or approved touch pens.
