Sony SVT1121 How To Use Manual page 180

Gentle touches always work as your VAIO computer is equipped with a capacitive touch
screen.
The touch screen may not work properly if you turn on your VAIO computer while touching
the screen or if the computer is affected by electromagnetic waves during the start-up
process. In such a case, restart the computer.
The touch screen may not work for several seconds after your VAIO computer returns to
Normal mode from Sleep mode. In such a case, wait for a while before using the touch
screen.
Keep the touch screen clean for good touch sensitivity. Dirt may cause damage or a
malfunction.
About the Touch Screen (Touch screen equipped models)
The touch screen enables direct interaction with your VAIO computer using your finger(s). You
can perform various gestures on the touch screen.
Your VAIO computer supports multi-touch input.
Note
Your VAIO computer is equipped with a capacitive touch screen. When using it, note the
following characteristics of the capacitive touch screen.
The touch screen will not work if you touch it with fingernails, or if you wear gloves.
If tapping triggers an unintentional operation, make sure that no other parts of your body are in contact
with the touch screen.
The surface of the touch screen may get hot. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.
Even though the surface of the touch screen is tempered glass, it could still become damaged. Treat it
with adequate care. If it breaks, small granular shards may scatter and cause injury.
Do not drop the touch screen or subject it to a strong impact. Do not scratch the surface. A surface flaw
may cause the glass to break.
A protection sheet may be attached to the LCD screen frame at the factory. Remove the sheet before
use; otherwise the touch screen may not work correctly.
Some apps do not accept touch screen operations.
