Hot key

Description

combination

 

 

 

fn+f3

Initiates Sleep, which saves your information in system memory. The display and other system

 

components turn off and power is conserved.

 

To exit Sleep, briefly press the power button.

 

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of information loss, save your work before initiating 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 system memory is saved to the hard drive.

 

The function of the fn+f3 hot key can be changed. For example, you can set the fn+f3 hot key to

 

initiate Hibernation instead of Sleep. In all Windows operating system windows, references to the

 

sleep button apply to the fn+f3 hot key.

 

 

fn+f4

Switches the screen image among display devices connected to the system. For example, if a

 

monitor is connected to the computer, fn+f4 alternates the screen image from computer display to

 

monitor display to simultaneous display on both the computer and the monitor.

 

Most external monitors receive video information from the computer using the external VGA video

 

standard. The fn+f4 hot key can also alternate images among other devices that are receiving video

 

information from the computer.

 

 

fn+ f6

Decreases speaker volume.

 

 

fn+f7

Increases speaker volume.

 

 

fn+f8

Launches HP Power Assistant. Displays charge information for all installed batteries. The display

 

indicates which batteries are charging and reports the amount of charge remaining in each battery.
