Launch Keys

Located at the top of the keyboard are four buttons. These buttons are called launch keys. They are designated as key 1, key 2, key 3 and key 4. By default, key 1 is used to launch the Internet browser and key 2 is used to launch the email application. Keys 3 and 4 start the Launch Manager application. All four launch keys can be set by the user. To set the launch keys, run the Acer Launch Manager.
