Chapter 2: BIOS information
2.3 Main Menu
When you enter the Setup program, the following screen appears.
Sub-menu
Note that a right pointer symbol (as shown on the left) appears to the left of certain
fields. This pointer indicates that you can display a sub-menu from this field. A sub-
menu contains additional options for a field parameter. To display a sub-menu,
move the highlight to the field and press <Enter>. The sub-menu appears. Use the
legend keys to enter values and move from field to field within a sub-menu as you
would within a menu. Use the <Esc> key to return to the main menu.
Take some time to familiarize yourself with the legend keys
and their corresponding functions. Practice navigating
through the various menus and sub-menus. If you
accidentally make unwanted changes to any of the fields,
use the set default hot key <F5> to load the Setup default
values. While moving around through the Setup program,
note that explanations appear in the Item Specific Help
window located to the right of each menu. This window
displays the help text for the currently highlighted field.

to move between the hour, minute, and second fields.
