colored commands can only be accessed by first pressing and holding the function
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. Follow the icons instead of the function keys.
"Zz" Icon (F1): Places the Notebook PC in suspend mode (either Save-to-RAM or Save-
to-Disk depending on sleep button setting in power management setup).

internal wireless LAN or Bluetooth (on selected models)
ON or OFF with an on-screen-display. When enabled, the
