Cautions for Touch Screen OperationsSince the LCD monitor is not pressure  sensitive, do not use any sharp 
objects, such as your fingernail or a ballpoint pen, for touch operations.
 Do not use wet fingers for touch screen operations.
 If the LCD monitor has any moisture or  if your fingers are wet, the touch 
screen may not respond or misoperation may occur. In such a case, turn 
off the power and wipe the LCD monitor with a cloth.
 Do not attach any protective sheet (c ommercially available) or sticker on 
the LCD monitor. It may make the touch operation response slow.
 If you quickly perform touch operation when [ Sensitive] is set, the touch 
response may be slower.
