The keyboard is equipped with a set of standard keys along with a
 and a  modifier key to provide
access to additional keys and system functions. These extra keys are
colour coded in
orange and blue print above the standard keys.
2.3.1 Modifier Keys

board except that they are not chorded – two keys cannot be held
down simultaneously. The modifier key must be pressed first followed by the key whose function you want modified.
Activating Modifier Keys
When a modifier key is pressed once, the modifier key icon displays the
key in lowercase letters in the taskbar. For example, pressing 
once displays
ctrl key in the taskbar. Once the next key is pressed, the
modifier key becomes inactive and disappears from the taskbar.
Locking Modifier Keys
When a modifier key is pressed twice, it is ‘locked’ on. A ‘locked’
modifier key icon displays the key in uppercase letters in the taskbar.
For example, pressing the  key twice locks it on – it is
displayed as BLUE KEY in the taskbar at the bottom of the screen. The
locked modifier key remains active until it is pressed a third time to
unlock or turn it off.

is susceptible to abrasions and scratches. Using sharp objects on the
touchscreen can scratch or cut the plastic or crack the internal conduc-
tive coating. Protect the touchscreen from the following chemicals:
• mustard,
• sodium hydroxide,
•
concentrated caustic solutions,
•
benzyl alcohol, and
concentrated miner acids.
If touchscreens are used in harsh environments, apply disposable
screen protectors to dramatically extend the life of the touchscreen.
