Function Key
The function keys (F1~F12) are the twelve keys at the top of your
keyboard.
The FN key 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.
You can configure the Function Keys Mode by selecting the "Special
function mode" or "Standard F1-F12 mode". Please refer to the TOSHIBA
System Settings section.
Function keys let you enable or disable certain features of the computer.
The functions can be performed by pressing the associated function keys.
