computer. (See “Hot Keys” section in this chapter for information.)
Fn. Key
The Fn. key, at the lower left corner of the keyboard, is used with
another key to perform the alternative function of a key. The letter “Fn.”
and the alternative functions are identified by the color of blue on the
keycap. To perform a desired function, first press and hold
Fn. , then

Hot Keys
Hot keys refer to a combination of keys that can be pressed any time to
activate special functions of the computer. Most hot keys operate in a
cyclic way. Each time a hot key combination is pressed, it shifts the
corresponding function to the other or next choice.
You can easily identify the hot keys with the icons imprinted on the
