Launch keys

Located at the top of the keyboard are four buttons, in addition to the power button. These buttons are called launch keys. They are desig- nated as key 1, key 2, key 3 and key 4, from right to left. By default, key 1 is used to launch the email application and key 2 is used to launch the Internet browser. Keys 3 and 4 start the Launch Manager application. The first four launch keys can be set by the user. To set the launch keys, run the Acer Launch Manager.
