Chapter 3: The Keyboard

Function Keys

3.3 Function Keys

There are various “soft keys” that are key combinations that enable specific features or additional keyboard characters. The soft keys are accessed by pressing and holding the function lock <Fn> key, then pressing the function key you need (these are affected by Caps Lock or <Shift> where appropriate). These functions or special characters are identified on the lower lip of the keys, as shown in each language-spe- cific keyboard diagram on pages 44 to 48.

There are also language-specific “dead keys” that produce accented characters when the appropriate key combination is used (see “Specialized Accent Keys” on

page 43).

3.3.1 Brightness Control

The keyboard has two convenient function keys for changing the brightness of the display. You can increase or decrease the brightness by holding down the <Fn> key while pressing the appropriate brightness key once for each level of brightness required. These keys are located as shown in the keyboard diagrams in this chapter.

3.3.2 Capitalized Characters

Capitalized versions of characters (including various accented letters) are accessible with the following key combinations:

Capitals:	<Shift> + alpha key, or <Fn> + <Tab> keys + alpha key.
Caps Lock Set:	<Fn> + <Tab> keys (<Fn> + < key on German keyboard).
Caps Lock UnSet:	Same key strokes as “Caps Lock Set” (<Shift> + <Tab>
	keys on French keyboard; <Shift> + < keys on German
	keyboard).

When the Caps Lock Set is activated, an “A” icon will appear in the right side of the Start Menu taskbar.
