    What does the Fn + F9 function on the m9750 do? Does it enable/disable Bluetooth? I don't have any documentation on the function keys.

    "Bluetooth Switch (Optional)
    Press this key combination (Fn+F9) to power on and power
    off the Bluetooth® module. Powering on the Bluetooth® by
    pressing this key combination (Fn+F9) does not automatically
    activate the Bluetooth® function. After powering on, you need
    to activate the Bluetooth® function through Windows™. The
    main purpose of this key combination (Fn+F9) is to provide
    you with a quick way to turn off the power of Bluetooth® when
    entering venues like airplanes, airports, and hospitals where the
    usage of Bluetooth® is prohibited or not advisable"
