Instant Launch Keys

Power4 Gear+ Key
The Power4 Gear+ button toggles power savings between various power saving modes. The power
saving modes control many aspects of the Notebook PC to maximize performance versus battery time
during various events.
Pad-Lock Key
Pressing this button will lock your touchpad when using an external mouse. Locking the touchpad will
prevent you from accidentally moving the cursor while typing. To enable the touchpad, simply press
this button again.
Wireless LAN Key (Optional)
This key is only applicable on models with internal wireless LAN. Press this button to enable or disable
the internal wireless LAN. (Windows software settings are necessary to use the wireless LAN.)
Programmable Launch Key
Pressing this button will launch your programmed software application while Windows is running.
Power4 Gear+ Modes
When you are using an AC power adapter, Power4 Gear+ will switch between three modes in the AC
power mode segment. When you remove the AC adapter, Power4 Gear+ will switch between seven
modes in the battery (DC) mode segment. When you remove or apply the AC adapter, Power4 Gear+
will automatically shift you up or down into the proper mode segment (AC or DC).
