Soft keys: FN key combinations
The FN (function) is used in combination with other keys to form soft keys.
Soft keys are key combinations that enable, disable or configure specific
features.
Please note that some software may disable or interfere with soft-key
operations, and that the soft-key settings are not restored when the
computer returns from Sleep Mode.

Key Cards or by pressing the associated Hot keys.
You can configure the Function Keys Mode by selecting the "Special
