							Use the touch screen
Avoid touching the touchscreen with other electrical devices, excessive pressure, or 
sharp objects.

pencil, or other sharp object on the touch screen.
Leaving the touchscreen on for a long time may result in afterimages (screen burn-
in). Lock your screen when you’re not using the phone to avoid that.
