Special Key Combinations

The following key combinations let you perform special

functions without exiting your application

Note: Some applications may conflict with certain special key combinations. If you

press key combination without results, exit the application and try again.

Fn + F10 Decreases LCD display contrast

Fn + F11 Increases LCD display contrast

Fn + F12 Sets beep volume

Setting the Speaker Volume

Pushing FN + F12 cycles through the four volume levels for the

internal speaker. When you set the volume level, the system

records and remembers the level you set for the Power On beep,

the Suspend Mode beep, and the normal system beep. This

setting is retained in memory even when you turn the system

off. Low battery alerts, however, always reset to the maximum

volume when you boot the system. To lower the volume of the

low battery alert, cycle through the volume settings by pressing

Fn + F12.

Note: Some settings such as BIOS errors and unknown system problems will always

beep at maximum volume.
