Keyboard shortcuts

keys can be used to type alternate characters or to perform
secondary functions. To type the alternate character, press Shift
and the desired key. To perform secondary functions, press Fn
and the desired key.
NOTE: You can define the primary behavior of the function
keys (F1–F12) changing Function Key Behavior in BIOS
setup program.
For more information, see Keyboard shortcuts.
Keyboard shortcuts
NOTE: Keyboard characters may differ depending on the keyboard language configuration. Keys that are used for shortcuts
remain the same across all language configurations.
Some keys on your keyboard have two symbols on them. These keys can be used to type alternate characters or to perform secondary
functions. The symbol that is shown on the lower part of the key refers to the character that is typed out when the key is pressed. If
you press shift and the key, the symbol that is shown on the upper part of the key is typed out. For example, if you press 2, 2 is typed
out; if you press Shift + 2, @ is typed out.
The keys F1-F12 at the top row of the keyboard are function keys for multimedia control, as indicated by the icon at the bottom of
the key. Press the function key to invoke the task represented by the icon. For example, pressing F1 disables/enables performance
boost (see the table below).
However, if the function keys F1-F12 are needed for specific software applications, multimedia functionality can be disabled by
pressing fn + Esc. Subsequently, multimedia control can be invoked by pressing fn and the respective function key. For example,
disable/enable performance boost by pressing fn + F1.
NOTE: You can also define the primary behavior of the function keys (F1–F12) by changing Function Key Behavior in BIOS
setup program.
