The FnLock switch

The FnLock is a switch that reverses the default and hidden function of a hotkey. The following table provides an example of how the FnLock switch changes the default function of the F1 key.

FnLock FnLock light Default function of the F1 key
Off Off Mute/Unmute sound
On On F1 function *
Note: The F1 function is application-dependent. It may have no function if the active application does not have a definition for the key.

The FnLock switch shares the ESC key (in the upper left corner of the keyboard). To turn it on or off, press Fn + ESC.
