- The trackpad makes it easy to scroll through menus, select options, and control your TV.
- The **left and right scrolling** is used to move around the Smart TV menus, while the up and **down scrolling** can be used to scroll through the options. Tapping on the middle of the trackpad is used to select an option.
- For example, if you want to move to the left, you’ll press down on the left arrow.
