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 Touch Pad too hard or press a sharp object such as a ball point pen against the Touch Pad. The Touch Pad could be damaged.

For some functions, you can tap the Touch Pad instead of pressing a control button.
