Function keys
The function keys (not to be confused with the

the 12 keys at the top of the keyboard.
(Sample Illustration) Function keys
F1
through
F12
are called function keys because they
execute programmed functions when pressed. Used in
combination with the
Fn
key, function keys marked with
icons execute specific functions on the computer. For
example,
F5
turns the touch pad ON/OFF. For more
