for proper insertion. Use the snap-open legs on the
bottom of the keyboard to adjust the slant/height for
your comfort.

Keyboard Functions
The MiniTouch Plus' space-saving design requires the
dual alpha/numeric function of certain keys. Since the
numeric keypad feature is controlled by the Num Lock
key, an inconvenient situation will occur when using a
computer that automatically enables the Num Lock key
with each boot up. Refer to the following solutions:
1. If your computer's BIOS setup utility has a Num
Lock option, set it to OFF.
2. If your computer's BIOS setup utility does not have
aNumLockoption,presstheNumLockkeytoturn
off the numeric keypad after each boot up.
NumLock–EmbeddedNumericKeypad
Press the Num Lock key to enable the numeric keypad
function. The Num Lock LED at the top right corner
indicates its ON/OFF status. The shaded keys in the
following keyboard layout identify the locations of the
numeric keypad keys.
