- Issue
On the models listed above, if you enable the keyboard's Num Lock function, it may remain enabled even after the computer is shut down and re-started. This can cause numbers to be displayed when some of the letter keys (U, I, O, J, K, L) are pressed.Num Lock may be enabled by pressing the Fn+F11 hotkey combination, or by pressing the NumLock key on an external keyboard. Num Lock may be disabled at any time by pressing Fn+F11 (or the Num Lock key), but ordinarily, Num Lock should be disabled automatically when the computer is shut down.
