Switching off
This section explains how to turn off the PC.
- Before turning off the power, terminate all jobs and save all necessary data.
- Before turning off the power, confirm that the access indicator lamps (
see Appendix
1, “Name and Function of Each Component”) of the floppy and hard disk drives are off. If
the power is turned off while the access indicator lamps are on, data may be lost or data
in the floppy disk or hard disk may be destroyed.
- If the power cord is unplugged from the outlet or the power is disconnected due to a
power failure while the PC is on, re-connect the power cord or wait until AC power
recovers. Pressing the power switch is not required. When the power recovers, the PC is
automatically turned on and started.
- If the Power Management Mode of the BIOS setup is set to “Disabled,” the power is not
switched off automatically (
see Section 11, “Power Management,” in Chapter 4,
“BIOS Setup”).
- The power cannot be switched off while the POST is in operation. Switch off the PC, as
described in the following, after the operating system has completely started.
- If “Suspend” is set for Power Switch<4 sec. of the BIOS setup, pressing the power switch
for four or more seconds may not turn off the power and the orange power lamp may
remain on, in which case the power switch must be detached and then re-pressed.
