Touch-screen use

When the engine START/STOP button is
pressed, the touch-screen can be
activated by the ON/OFF switch on the
touch-screen console.

The buttons surrounding the
touch-screen display are referred to as
hard buttons and should be pressed
firmly. The touch-screen buttons are soft
buttons and only require a short, light
pressure to function. Do not use
excessive pressure.

When operating touch-screen buttons,
always extend the tip of one finger, and
withhold the thumb and remaining fingers
from the screen. Touching the screen
with more than one finger at a time may
cause false inputs.

Throughout the handbook, the
expression Select an item (or similar
wording) means touch the on-screen
button to select or alter the required item.

The handbook shows the on-screen
menus, explains how to operate the
controls and illustrates how to select or
alter settings and requirements. After
becoming familiar with the controls,
follow the on-screen menus and
prompts, to operate the system as
required.

Where it is thought that guidance through
the touch-screen menus is necessary,
additional information has been given
within that section or subject.
