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. |
