To display the [Home] screen, press the [Home] key on the control panel.

One icon is assigned to each function, and these icons are displayed on the [Home] screen. You can add shortcuts to frequently used functions or Web pages to the [Home] screen. Also, you can register widgets such as the Change Languages Widget to it.

Important

  • Do not apply strong impact or force to the screen, or it may be damaged. Maximum force allowable is approx. 30N (approx. 3 kgf). (N = Newton, kgf = Kilogram force. 1 kgf = 9.8N.)

The [Home] screen of the Smart Operation Panel consists of five screens, from Home screen 1 to Home screen 5. Home screen 3 is the default screen that appears first after you press the [Home] key.

To switch between screens, flick your finger to the right or left on the screen.
