CAPS LOCK

This indicator glows green when letter keys are
locked into their uppercase format.

NUM LOCK

When the NUM LOCK indicator glows, you can
use the number keys on the keyboard for number
entry.

Function keys: F1 … F9

The function keys (not to be confused with the special FN key) are the nine
keys at the top of your keyboard - these keys function differently from other
keys.

F1 through F9 are called function keys because they execute programmed
functions when pressed and, when used in combination with the FN key,
those keys marked with icons also execute specific functions on the
computer.
