TouchPad and control buttons

Two buttons below the keyboard are used like the buttons on a mouse pointer.

Press the left button to select a menu item or to manipulate text or graphics designated by the pointer. Press the right button to display a menu or other function depending on the software you are using.

Do not press on the TouchPad too hard or press a sharp object such as a ball point pen against it. The TouchPad could be damaged.

The TouchPad has similar functions to a two-button mouse with a scroll wheel. For some functions, you can tap it instead of pressing a button.
