Using the Keyboard
The full-sized keyboard includes an embedded numeric keypad, separate cursor, lock, Windows,
function and special keys.
Lock keys and Embedded Numeric Keypad
The keyboard has three lock keys which you can toggle on and off.
The embedded numeric keypad functions like a desktop numeric keypad. It is indicated by small
characters located on the upper right corner of the keycaps. To simplify the keyboard legend,
cursor-control key symbols are not printed on the keys.
