Important: Power Management keys are controlled by your system. If you are experiencing difculty
with their functioning, please contact your computer manufacturer for information on compatibility and

connections (purple is for
the Keyboard and the USB
connection; the green adapter

a diagram on the top connector
for identication. Your computer
will either have a matching color
scheme or an illustration next to
