Lock Key	Description
Caps Lock	When Caps Lock is on, all alphabetic characters are typed in
	uppercase. Toggle on and off by pressing the Caps Lock key on the
	left side of the keyboard.
Num lock	When Num Lock is on, the embedded keyboard is in numeric mode.
<Fn+F11>	The keys function as a calculator(complete with the arithmetic
	operators+,-,*, and /). Use this mode when you need to do a lot of
	numeric data entry. A better solution would be to connect and
	external keypad.
Scroll lock	When Scroll Lock is on, the screen moves one line up or down when
<Fn+F12>	you press the up or down arrow keys respectively. Scroll Lock does
	not work with some applications.

The embedded numeric keypad functions like a desktop numeric keypad. It is indicated by small characters located on the upper right corner of the keycaps. To simplify the keyboard legend, cursor-control key symbols are not printed on the keys.
