Using the integrated numeric keypad

NOTE: For more information on the location of the integrated numeric keypad, see Getting to know your computer on page 3.

Component	Description

num lk key	Alternates between the navigational and numeric functions on the
	integrated numeric keypad.
	NOTE: The keypad function that is active when the computer is
	turned off is reinstated when the computer is turned back on.

Integrated numeric keypad	When num lk has been enabled, it can be used like an external
	numeric keypad. To alternate between this numeric function and the
	navigational function (indicated by the directional arrows on the keys),
	press the num lk key.

Using an optional external numeric keypad

Keys on most external numeric keypads function differently according to whether num lock is on or off. (Num lock is turned off at the factory.) For example:

●When num lock is on, most keypad keys type numbers.

●When num lock is off, most keypad keys function like the arrow, page up, or page down keys.

When num lock on an external keypad is turned on, the num lock light on the computer is turned on. When num lock on an external keypad is turned off, the num lock light on the computer is turned off.

To turn num lock on or off on an external keypad as you work:

▲Press the num lk key on the external keypad, not on the computer.

Using the TouchPad

To move the pointer, slide one finger across the TouchPad in the direction you want the pointer to go. Use the left and right TouchPad buttons like the buttons on an external mouse.

NOTE: In addition to the pointing devices included with your computer, you can use an external

USB mouse (purchased separately) by connecting it to one of the USB ports on the computer.

Turning the TouchPad off and on

To turn the TouchPad off and on, quickly double-tap the TouchPad on/off button.
