Using touch screen
All of the functions of the Element, except for power and volume, are
performed on the touch screen. Therefore, it is essential to know how to
use the touch screen.
The following finger actions might help you easily understand how to use
the touch screen.
x Tap: Touch an item (e.g. application or widget) once that appears on
the screen with your finger to run it or access a menu or an option
x Double tap: Tap an item twice with your finger
x Drag: Tap and hold your finger on an item and move it without losing
contact with the screen
x Flick: Place a finger on an empty space of the screen and move the
screen up or down, or left or right
x Pinch: Place two fingers on the screen and move them apart to zoom
in a picture, a document or a web page, or move them together to
zoom out
x Select and tap: Tap an item in the list of options available
x Press and hold: Press a key, button or any item for a few seconds until
a list of options appears
Cautions
x Do not use sharp tools that can scratch the touch screen.
x Do not allow the touch screen to come in contact with chemicals.
The screen may malfunction in chemicals.
