Handling the Touch Pad
If a key combination such as Fn + F5 is used while the pad is being touched, the function of the key combination may not work. In addition, it is possible that control of the cursor will be lost and the cursor will not show proper movements. In such cases, the computer has to be restarted by using the keyboard (e.g., ). Do not place any object on the work surface or press down forcefully with sharp-pointed objects (e.g., nails), hard objects that can leave marks (e.g., pencils and ball point pen). Do not allow things that could dirty the touch pad, such as oil. The cursor may not work properly in such cases. When the touch pad becomes dirty: Wipe to remove dirty areas by using a dry soft cloth such as gauze or a soft cloth first applied with detergent diluted with water and then thoroughly wrung. Do not use benzene, thinner, or disinfectant-type alcohol.
