You can remap them:
:cnoremap µ <Up>
:cnoremap £ <Down>
Use anything that suits you instead of µ and £, of course. You may
prefer F keys (if easily reachable on your laptop) or non-ASCII keys (if
you have any), because most ASCII keys and Ctrl keys are already
assigned standard functions in Vim. As for Alt keys, they often collide
with upper-ASCII keys (e.g. Alt-a with a-acute as mentioned recently) so
I generally avoid them.
Best regards,
Tony.
