Using the keyboard
Your computer is delivered with a VAIO keyboard. The features are much the same a standard keyboard,
plus some additional functions.
For more information on the standard keys, please go to the Windows
Help and Support Center
. The
VAIO-Link website (
) also contains glossary information to help you use the keyboard.
Indicators
Using the shortcut keys
Depending on the keyboard delivered with your model, you may be able to use shortcut keys to start your
favourite software, without having to click the shortcut icon on the desktop.
Use an <S> Key simply by pressing it.
If you want to, you can use
VAIO Action Setup
to change the functions of the <S> Keys. All the buttons
are reprogrammable.
