Hotkey combination

Description

 

 

fn+f3

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

 

turn off and power is conserved.

 

To exit Sleep, briefly slide 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 is saved to the hard drive.

 

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

 

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

 

sleep button apply to the fn+f3 hotkey.

 

 

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 hotkey can also alternate images among other devices that are receiving video

 

information from the computer.

 

 

fn+f5

Enables/disables the TouchPad.

 

 

fn+f8

Displays charge information for all installed batteries. The display indicates which batteries are

 

charging and reports the amount of charge remaining in each battery.

 

 

fn+f9

Decreases the screen brightness level.

 

 

fn+f10

Increases the screen brightness level.

 

 

fn+f11

Activates and deactivates the ambient light sensor. When activated, the ambient light sensor

 

automatically adjusts the display brightness based on the lighting conditions in your environment.
