Top-edge swipe and bottom-edge swipe

The top-edge swipe or bottom-edge swipe displays app command options that allow you to customize
apps.

IMPORTANT:

When an app is open, the top-edge gesture varies depending on the app.

Gently swipe your finger from the top edge or the bottom edge to reveal the app command
options.

Using the keyboard and mouse

The keyboard and mouse allow you to type, select items, scroll and to perform the same functions as
you do using touch gestures. The keyboard also allows you to use action keys and hot keys to
perform specific functions.

TIP:

The Windows key

on the keyboard allows you to quickly return to the Start screen from

an open app or the Windows desktop. Pressing the Windows key again will return you to the previous
screen.

NOTE:

Depending on the country or region, your keyboard may have different keys and keyboard

functions than those discussed in this section.

Using the keys

You can quickly access information or perform functions by using certain keys and key combinations.

Using the action keys

An action key performs an assigned function. The icon on each of the

f1

through

f4

keys, and the

f6

through

f12

keys illustrates the assigned function for that key.

To use an action key function, press and hold the key.

CAUTION:

Use extreme care when making changes in Setup Utility (BIOS). Errors can prevent the

computer from operating properly.
