Colored Hot Keys

The following defines the colored hot keys on the Notebook PC's keyboard. The

key while pressing a key with a colored command.
The Hot Key locations on the function keys may vary depending on model but the
functions should remain the same.

to-Disk depending on sleep button setting in power management setup).
Radio Tower (F2): Wireless Models Only: Toggles the internal wireless
LAN or Bluetooth (on selected models) ON or OFF with an on-screen-
display. When enabled, the corresponding wireless indicator will light.
Windows software settings are necessary to use the wireless LAN or Bluetooth.
