Using the Keyboard
Your computer has an 87/88-key keyboard. By pressing designated key combinations,
you can have access to all the key functions of a full-sized keyboard.
Although the layout of the keys on your computer’s keyboard is different from
that on a desktop computer’s keyboard, the keyboard feels like a full-sized
keyboard when you use it.
The keys on the keyboard can be grouped into the following categories:
•
Full-sized Alphanumeric typewriter keys are arranged like a standard
typewriter keyboard and are used for text entry. The Windows keys on either
side of the spacebar open Windows menus and perform other special functions.
•
Function keys, when pressed together with the
key, enable special
functions.
•
Cursor and Screen control keys move the cursor. They may perform other
functions, depending on your software.
To clean the computer keyboard, use slightly damp cotton swabs. Scrub the keys and
the surface around the keys.
