Hotkeys

Hotkeys (Fn + another key) let you enable or disable certain features of the computers.

Sound mute: Pressing Fn + Esc in a Windows environment turns sound on or off. When you press these hotkeys, the current setting will be displayed as an icon.

If you use these hotkeys to mute the sound, you cannot enable sound by clearing the Mute all check box in the Master Volume under the volume control item on the task bar. The operating system records this hotkey setting, so the sound will be muted even if you restart the computer. To enable sound press Fn + Esc again.

Instant security: Press Fn + F1 to blank the screen to prevent others from accessing your data. To restore the screen and original settings, press any key or press the Touch Pad. If a screensaver password is registered, a dialog box will appear. Enter the screensaver password and click OK. If no password is set, the screen will be restored when you press any key or press the Touch Pad.

Power save mode: Pressing Fn + F2 changes the power save mode.

If you press Fn + F2, the Power Save Mode is displayed in a dialog box. Continue holding down Fn and press F2 again to change the setting. You can also change this setting through the Plugged in or Running on batteries item of the Power Saver Properties window in Power Saver.
