As you are new to Emacs I'm assuming you are not used to the C-M-<x>
notation. Note that this does not mean Control + Capital M then \
C, M and S are modifier keys and you press the required ones at the same
time.
C is control.
M is meta (alt on PCs).
S is shift.
Thus, C-M-\ is control + meta (alt) + backslash at the same time.
