The actual answer is to press the dots, but use a dull plastic tool that fits "within" the dot. Otherwise the width of your finger is too imprecise to calibrate the dots and screen.
Hope you, and others, get this and try it. It works. I just discovered this with the Lord's help and did it on my nuvi 1300 successfully after only about 10 presses.
