4.2 Shutting Down the System
There are several possibilities to shut down the DVS system. All depend
on whether the operating system is already loaded, frozen or not com-
pletely loaded. Please act accordingly.
To shut down the system perform the following according to the state
of the system’s operating system:
With the operating system fully loaded
If the operating system is up and running, there are two ways to shut
down your system:
1. Turn the system off by shutting down the operating system the
usual way.
The operating system will then save your personal settings and once it
has ended, the system will turn off.
2. Alternatively, you can initiate a fast shut down by pressing the
power switch briefly.
Some settings will be saved and afterwards the system turns off.
With the operating system frozen or not completely loaded
If the operating system is not responding anymore or not completely
loaded, perform the following:

Shut down the system by pressing the power switch until the sys-
tem turns off.
The system will then shut down immediately.
After a shut-down wait at least ten seconds before starting the
system again. This time is needed to safely erase all memory
banks of the system.
The fast shut down may not save all your system data and
personal settings before the system turns off.
Shutting down the system this way may lead to corrupted
system data. Use this procedure only if absolutely necessary.
