them twice.
Important: Use only a stylus approved by Nokia for use with this device.
Using any other stylus may invalidate any warranty applying to the device and may
damage the touch screen. Avoid scratching the touch screen. Never use an actual
pen or pencil or other sharp objects to write on the touch screen.

Tip: When you open a list view, the first item is already highlighted. To
open the highlighted item, tap it once.
● Applications and folders in the menu when using the list view type
● Files in a file list, for example, an image in the images and videos view in Gallery.
If you tap a file or similar item once, it is not opened, it becomes highlighted. To
see the options available for the item, select Options or, if available, select an
icon from a toolbar.
