The following video transmission types, with examples of devices that use them, are supported by the fn+f4 hotkey: ● LCD (computer display) ● External VGA (most external monitors) ● S-Video (televisions, camcorders, VCRs, and video capture cards with S-Video-in jacks, on select models) Initiating Hibernation (fn+f5) Press fn+f5 to initiate Hibernation. When Hibernation is initiated, your information is saved to a hibernation file on the hard drive and the computer turns off.

To exit Hibernation, briefly press the power button. The function of the fn+f5 hotkey can be changed.
