6. Special Function Hot Keys
Hot keys are the unique keys for quick and direct access to programs, files or commands. Using hot keys
can increase your productivity as you do not have to take your hand off the keyboard so frequently, e.g.
to use the mouse.
The available hot keys depend on the keyboard model and the operating system used. The following list
shows the icon on and standard assignment of each hot key.
