26 - Keyboard

• Cursor keys: Your keyboard contains four arrow

keys for moving the cursor or insertion point to the right, left, up, or down within windows,
applications and documents.

• Function keys: The keys labeled [F1] through [F12] are used in conjunction with the [Fn] key to

produce special actions that vary depending on what program is running.

• Windows keys: These keys work with your Windows operating system and function the same as

the onscreen Start menu button, or the right button on your pointing device.

Numeric Keypad

The right-hand section of the keyboard serves as a numeric keypad. To activate the keypad functions, press
the [NumLk] button. Using the keypad keys, you can enter numerals 0 through 9, perform addition ( + ),
subtraction ( - ), multiplication ( * ), or division ( / ), and enter decimal points ( . ) using the keys designated
as ten-key function keys. When [NumLk] is not active, you can use the numeric keypad to navigate
(Home, End, Page Up, Page Down, left, right, up, down). The keys in the numeric keypad are marked on
the front edge of the key to indicate their secondary functions.

Windows Keys

Your LifeBook notebook has two Windows keys, consisting of a Start key and an Application key. The
Start key displays the Start menu. This button functions the same as your onscreen Start menu button. The
Application key functions the same as your right mouse button and displays shortcut menus for the
selected item. (Please refer to your Windows documentation for additional information regarding the
Windows keys.)

Cursor Keys

The cursor keys are the four arrow keys on the keyboard which allow you to move the cursor up, down,
left and right in applications. In programs such as Windows Explorer, it moves the “focus” (selects the
next item up, down, left, or right).
