Function keys 
The function keys (not to be confused with the 
Fn
 key) are the 
12 keys at the top of the keyboard.

F1
 through 
F12
 are called function keys because they execute 
programmed functions when pressed. Used in combination 
with the 
Fn
 key, function keys marked with icons execute 
specific functions on the computer. For example, 
Fn+F9
 turns 
off the TouchPad or Dual Mode Pad. For more information,
