Microsoft Windows™ Keys

There are two special Windows™ keys on the keyboard as described below.

The key with the Windows™ Logo activates the Start menu button at the bottom left of the
screen.

The other key, which looks like a Windows™ menu with a small cursor, activates the proper-
ties menu and is equivalent to pressing the right mouse button on a Windows object.

Keyboard as a Numeric Keypad

The numeric keypad is embedded in the keyboard and consists of 15 keys that make number intensive
input more convenient. These dual-purpose keys are labeled in orange on the keycaps. Numeric assign-
ments are located at the upper right hand corner of each key as shown in the figure. When the numeric

keypad is engaged by pressing

Num Lk

, the number lock LED will light. If an external keyboard is

connected, pressing the

Num Lk

key on either the Notebook PC or external keyboard will enable/disable

NumLock on both keyboards in unison. To disable the Notebook PC numeric keypad while keeping the

keypad on an external keyboard activated, press the

Num Lk

keys on the Notebook PC.

NOTE: The large bold characters are exaggerated here for your reference. They are not printed on the
keyboard as shown here.
