Getting Started
Switching the Power On
Once you have connected your AC adapter or charged the internal lithium battery,
power on your notebook by pressing the Power On/Off button located above the
keyboard. To power off, press the button for four seconds.
When you power on your notebook, it will perform a power on self test (POST) to
check the internal hardware and configuration. If a fault is found, your computer
makes a warning sound or displays an error message. Depending on the nature of
the problem, you may be able to continue by starting the operating system or by en-
tering the BIOS setup utility and revising the settings. After satisfactory completion
of the POST, your notebook loads the installed operating system.
Never turn off your notebook during the POST, as an unrecoverable error
may occur.
