Lenovo ThinkPad: Swapping action of the function keys

My labtop is Lenovo ThinkPad E440 and I'm using Ubuntu 14.04. To adjust the screen brightness or volume, I use F5/F6 or F2/F3, respectively. And if I want to refresh page in browser, I need to press Fn+F5. I want to remap the function key by just pressing F5 to refresh a page in browser and Fn+F5/F6 to adjust screen brightness instead.

To do that, I just press Fn key and tap Esc key and that's it. It invokes function lock. You'll see LED light up on the Fn key as indicator.
