on-screen keyboard.

To select an item, tap the center of the icon.
•
Don't press too hard; the touchscreen is sensitive enough to pick up a light, yet irm
•
touch.
Use the tip of your inger to touch the option you want. Be careful not to touch any
•
other icons.
Touch and hold
Touch and hold an item on the screen by touching it and not lifting your
inger until an action occurs. For example, to open a contact's available
options, touch and hold the contact in the Contacts list until the context
menu opens.
Drag
Touch and hold an item for a moment and then, without lifting your inger,
move your inger on the screen until you reach the target position. For
example, you can drag items on the Home screen to reposition them.
Swipe, slide, or lick
Move your inger quickly across the surface of the screen, without pausing
when you irst touch it (so you don't drag an item instead). For example,
you can browse through the different Home screens by swiping to the left
or right, slide the screen up or down to scroll through a list, or remove an
application from the Recent Apps screen by licking its graphic off the
screen.
Double-tap
Tap the screen twice quickly to zoom, highlight text, or turn the screen on/
off. For example, quickly double-tap a section of a webpage to adjust that
section to it the width of the screen and zoom in and out when viewing a
picture and when using Maps. Double-tap a word to highlight it. Double-tap
can also activate the KnockON feature to turn the touchscreen on or off.
