special function keys

Many of the function keys across the top of the keyboard have two uses — one use set by your software programs and the other specific to eMachines notebooks.

Standard function keys are defined by your software applications and may have different meanings in different applications. For the definitions of standard function keys, see the documentation that came with the application or access its online help. To use a standard function key, press the desired key.

Special function keys are unique to your eMachines notebook and can be used to perform specific tasks. The special function keys are identified by the image on the key. See the following page for definitions of the special function keys.
