Acer Aspire One D255-2DQGkk [24/52] Lock keys and embedded numeric keypad

English

Using the keyboard

The keyboard has full-sized keys and 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.

Lock key Description

Caps Lock

When Caps Lock is on, all alphabetic characters typed are

in uppercase.

Num Lock

When Num Lock is on, the embedded keypad is in numeric mode. The

keys function as a calculator (complete with the arithmetic operators

+, -, *, and /). Use this mode when you need to do a lot of numeric

data entry. A better solution would be to connect an external keypad.

Note: <Fn> + <F11> only for certain models.

Scroll Lock

When Scroll Lock is on, the screen moves one line up or down when

you press the up or down arrow keys respectively. Scroll Lock does not

work with some applications.
