Your computer comes with a built-in display, but you can also 
connect an external monitor or projector via the RGB (monitor) port.

Before connecting an external monitor or video projector, configure 
your computer for the type of device you are connecting. To do this, 
refer to the documentation for your operating system and devices.

You can easily attach an external monitor or projector to your 
computer if you need a larger screen. To do this:

Connect the monitor’s video cable to the RGB (monitor) port 
on the side of the computer.

Connect the device’s power cable to a live electrical outlet.

Turn on the external device.

Set the display mode by pressing 

Fn + F5

, or by configuring the 

Display Properties settings.

Once you have connected an external display device, you can 
choose to use the internal display only, the external device only, or 
both simultaneously. 

Some modes are only available with the appropriate device attached 
and turned on.

The quickest way to change the display output settings is to use the 
display hot key (

Fn

 + 

F5

):

Press 

Fn

 and 

F5

 simultaneously.

While holding down 

Fn

, press 

F5

 repeatedly until the setting 

you want takes effect. Briefly pause each time you press the 

F5

 

key to allow time for the display to change.

This hot key cycles through the settings in the following order 
(only the first option is available when you do not have an 
external monitor attached):

❖

LCD—Internal display only

❖

LCD + CRT—Internal display and external monitor 
simultaneously

❖

CRT—External monitor only
