HOW TO USE THE TOUCH SCREEN

The console features a tablet with a full-color touch 

screen. The following information will help you become 

familiar with the tablet’s advanced technology: 

•  The console functions similarly to other tablets. You 

can slide or flick your finger against the screen to 

move certain images on the screen, such as the 

displays in a workout. However, you cannot zoom in 

and out by sliding your fingers on the screen. 

•  To type information into a text box, first touch the text 

box to view the keyboard. To use numbers or other 

characters on the keyboard, touch the ?123 button. 

To view more characters, touch the Alt button. Touch 

the Alt button again to return to the number key-

board. To return to the letter keyboard, touch the 

ABC button. To use a capital character, touch the 

button with an upward-facing arrow. To use multiple 

capital characters, touch the arrow button again. To 

return to the lowercase keyboard, touch the arrow 

button a third time. To clear the last character, touch 

the button with a backward-facing arrow and an X.

•  Use these buttons 

on the console to 

navigate the tablet. 

Press the home but-

ton to return to the 

main menu. Press the 

center button to access the settings menu (see page 

24). Press the back button to return to the previ-

ous screen.
