The Keyboard

Function keys: F1 … F9

The function keys (not to be confused with the special Fn key) are the

twelve keys at the top of your keyboard - these keys function differently

from other keys.

F1 through F9 are called function keys because they execute programmed

functions when pressed and, when used in combination with the Fn key,

those keys marked with icons also execute specific functions on the

computer. Please refer to the section, Soft keys: Fn key combinations, in

this chapter for further information, taking care to note that the function

executed by individual keys will depend on the software you are using.

Soft keys: Fn key combinations

The Fn (function) is unique to TOSHIBA computers and is used in

combination with other keys to form soft keys. Soft keys are key

combinations that enable, disable or configure specific features.

Hot keys

Hot keys (pressing Fn + a function or ESC key) let you enable or disable

certain features of the computer.

Mute: Pressing Fn + ESC turns the volume on and off.

Lock: Pressing Fn + F1 enters ''Lock computer mode''. To restore your

desktop, you need to log on again.

Power Plan: Pressing Fn + F2 changes the power settings.

Please note that some software may disable or interfere with soft-key

operations, and that the soft-key settings are not restored when the

computer returns from Sleep Mode.
