The following items show you how to use the touchpad with Acer Bio-Protection fingerprint
reader.
 Move finger across the touchpad (4) to move the cursor.
 Press the left (3) and right (2) buttons located beneath the touchpad to perform

a mouse.

function (only for certain models) to scroll up or down and move left or right a page.
This fingerprint reader or button mimics your cursor pressing on the right scroll bar of
