Using a TOUCH SCREEN

Please take a moment to try out your touch screen itself. To select a function on the touch screen, place your finger on the main temp display and give a short firm push. Try a “tap” of the finger or stylus. Your input must last long enough for the system to determine it is not an accidental ‘bump’. Using the stylus is more comfortable for some users. Again allow the system enough time to recognize your inputs. When you are comfortable with touch inputs, proceed.
