Keyboard function keys
Some keys on your keyboard have two symbols on them. These keys can be used to type alternate characters or to perform secondary functions. The symbol that is shown on the lower part of the key refers to the character that is typed out when the key is pressed. If you press shift and the key, the symbol that is shown on the upper part of the key is typed out. For example, if you press 2, 2 is typed out; if you press Shift + 2, @ is typed out.
The keys F1-F12 at the top row of the keyboard are function keys for multimedia control, as indicated by the icon on the key. Press the function key to invoke the task represented by the icon. For example, pressing F1 mutes the audio (see the table below).
However, if the function keys F1-F12 are needed for specific software applications, multimedia functionality can be disabled by pressing Fn + Esc. Later, multimedia control can be invoked by pressing Fn and the respective function key. For example, mute audio by pressing Fn + F1.
| Function key | Primary behavior |
|---|---|
| F1 | Mute/unmute audio |
| F2 | Decrease audio volume |
| F3 | Increase audio volume |
| F4 | Play or pause media file |
| F5 | Turn on or turn off keyboard backlight |
| F6 | Decrease display brightness |
| F7 | Increase display brightness |
| F8 | Switch to an external display |
| F10 | Print screen (Screen capture) |
| F11 | Home |
| F12 | End |
The Fn key is also used with selected keys on the keyboard to invoke other secondary functions.

ComfortView
Blue light is a color in the light spectrum which has a short wavelength and high energy. Chronic exposure to blue light, particularly from digital sources may disrupt sleep patterns and cause long-term effects such as eye strain, eye fatigue, or damage to the eyes.
ComfortView mode can be enabled and configured using the Dell CinemaColor application.
ComfortView mode complies with TÜV Rheinland's requirement for low blue light displays.
Low blue light: Dell ComfortView software technology reduces harmful blue light emissions to make extended screen time easy on your eyes.
To reduce the risk of eye strain, it is also recommended that you:
- Position the display at a comfortable viewing distance between 20 and 28 inches (50 cm and 70 cm) from your eyes.
- Blink frequently to moisten your eyes, wet your eyes with water, or apply suitable eye drops.
- Look away from your display, and gaze at a distant object at 20 ft (609.60 cm) away for at least 20 seconds during each break.
- Take an extended break for 20 minutes every two hours.
ComfortView Plus
Blue light is a color in the light spectrum which has a short wavelength and high energy. Chronic exposure to blue light, particularly from digital sources may disrupt sleep patterns and cause long-term effects such as eye strain, eye fatigue, or damage to the eyes.
The display on this computer is designed to minimize blue light and complies with TÜV Rheinland's requirement for low blue light displays.
Low blue light mode is enabled at the factory, so no further configuration is necessary.
To reduce the risk of eye strain, it is also recommended that you:
- Position the display at a comfortable viewing distance between 20 and 28 inches (50 cm and 70 cm) from your eyes.
- Blink frequently to moisten your eyes, wet your eyes with water, or apply suitable eye drops.
- Look away from your display, and gaze at a distant object at 20 ft (609.60 cm) away for at least 20 seconds during each break.
- Take an extended break for 20 minutes every two hours.
