Fn+f5

Function	Hotkey	Description

		Most external monitors receive video information from the
		computer using the external VGA video standard. The fn+f4
		hotkey can also alternate images among other devices
		receiving video information from the computer.
		The following video transmission types, with examples of
		devices that use them, are supported by the fn+f4 hotkey:
		● LCD (computer display)
		● External VGA (most external monitors)
		● S-Video (televisions, camcorders, DVD players, VCRs,
		and video capture cards with S-Video-in jacks)
		● HDMI (televisions, camcorders, DVD players, VCRs,
		and video capture cards with HDMI ports)
		● Composite video (televisions, camcorders, DVD
		players, VCRs, and video capture cards with composite-
		video-in jacks)
		NOTE: Composite video devices can be connected to
		the system only by using an optional docking device or
		expansion product.

Initiate Sleep.	fn+f5	CAUTION: To reduce the risk of information loss, save your
		work before initiating Sleep.
		When Sleep is initiated, your information is stored in system
		memory, the screen is cleared, and power is conserved.
		While the computer is in the Sleep state, the power lights
		blink.
		The computer must be on before you can initiate Sleep.
		NOTE: If a critical battery level occurs while the computer
		is in the Sleep state, the computer initiates Hibernation and
		the information stored in memory is saved to the hard drive.
		The factory setting for critical battery action is Hibernate, but
		this setting can be changed using Power Options in Windows
		Control Panel.
		To exit Sleep, briefly press the power button.
		The function of the fn+f5 hotkey can be changed. For
		example, you can set the fn+f5 hotkey to initiate Hibernation
		instead of Sleep.
		NOTE: In all Windows operating system windows,
		references to the sleep button apply to the fn+f5 hotkey.

Initiate QuickLock.	fn+f6	The QuickLock security feature protects your information by
		displaying the operating system Log On window. While the
		Log On window is displayed, the computer cannot be
		accessed until a Windows user password or a Windows
		administrator password is entered.
		NOTE: Before you can use QuickLock, you must set a
		Windows user password or a Windows administrator
		password. For instructions, refer to Help and Support.
		To use QuickLock, press fn+f6 to display the Log On window
		and lock the computer. Then follow the on-screen instructions
