And while you're holding it down go up to top row of buttons that have in *tiny* letters, F9 and F10, and push those to see what happens.

So, again, hold keep DOWN the fn button (keep it down), then press the F9 button.

If that doesn't do it hold DOWN the fn button (don't let go) then press the F10 button!
