10. Special Function Hot Keys Hot keys give you quick and direct access to programs, files or commands. Using hot keys can increase
your productivity, as you do not have to take your hand off the keyboard so frequently (e.g. to use the
mouse). The available hot keys depend on the operating system and application being used. The following
list shows the icon on each hot key and the standard assignment of each. Most hot keys can be reconfigured
with the Multimedia Keyboard and Optical Mouse Software (see sections 7 & 8).
