About the Touchscreen

Your tablet comes equipped with an easy-to-use touch-screen which allows access to the tablet's functions. Use your finger tip to touch the area of the screen where a control icon is displayed. If you touch and hold the screen, it will register as a continuous button press.

COBY Kyros MID1024 - About the Touchscreen - 1

To avoid damaging the screen, do not touch it with excessive force or with any object other than your finger (or a stylus). For best response, make sure your hands are clean before using the touchscreen controls.

Protective Film

A thin film has been applied to the touchscreen to protect it during shipping. The protective film should be removed before use. To remove it, simply take a corner of the film and peel it away from the screen.

Using the Stylus (MID7024 & MID8024)

A stylus is included for your convenience. You can use the tip of the stylus to make precise selections on the touchscreen.

COBY Kyros MID1024 - Using the Stylus (MID7024 & MID8024) - 1

The MID1024 will not work with a stylus; you must use your finger to operate its touch-screen.

Touchscreen Actions

You can control the functions of the tablet by using the touchscreen in combination with the three touch keys located on the bezel. To control the tablet with the touchscreen, use your fingertip or stylus to manipulate icons, buttons, menu items, the on-screen keyboard, and other items displayed on the screen.

You can perform the following actions on the touchscreen using your fingertip or stylus.

Touch and Hold:Some on-screen items have an alternate action if you touch and hold it (e.g., opening an alternate menu, or to activate the drag function). To touch and hold an item, touch the item and do not lift your fingertip/stylus until the action occurs.
Drag: Drag an onon-screen item to change its position (e.g., an application icon on the home screen).To drag an item, touch and hold it for a moment, then without lifting your fingertip/stylus, move your fingertip/stylus on the screen until the item reaches its target destination.
