The Keyboard
Soft keys: FN key combinations
The FN (function) is unique to TOSHIBA computers and is used in
combination with other keys to form soft keys. Soft keys are key
combinations that enable, disable or configure specific features.
This computer's keyboard is designed to provide all the features of the 104-
key enhanced keyboard.
Since the keyboard is smaller and has fewer keys, some of the enhanced
keyboard functions must be simulated using two keys instead of one on the
larger keyboard.
Hot keys
Hot keys (pressing FN + a function or ESC key) let you enable or disable
certain features of the computer.
■ Mute
Pressing FN + ESC turns the volume on and off.
■ Lock
Pressing FN + F1 enters ''Lock computer mode''. To restore your desktop,
you need to log on again.

■ Sleep
Pressing FN + F3 switches the system to Sleep Mode.

Please note that some software may disable or interfere with soft-key

computer returns from Sleep Mode.
To use a simultaneous mode, you must set the resolution of the internal
display panel to match the resolution of the external display device.
