SECTION 1

Power On

Suspend/Resume/Power On Button
The suspend/resume/power on switch is used to turn on your LifeBook from its off state. Once you
have connected your AC adapter or charged the internal Lithium ion battery, you can power on your
LifeBook.

10. Starting Your  LifeBook

To turn on your LifeBook from its off state, press the suspend/resume/on button, located adjacent to
the status indicator panel. When you are done working you can either leave your LifeBook in Suspend
mode, or you can turn it off.

 CAUTION

When you turn on your LifeBook be sure you have a power source. This means that at least
one battery is installed and charged, or that the AC or Auto/Airline adapter is connected and
has power.

When you power on your LifeBook, it will perform a Power On Self Test (POST) to check the internal
parts and configuration for correct functionality. If a fault is found, your LifeBook will emit an audio
warning and/or an error message will be displayed. Depending on the nature of the problem, you may
be able to continue by starting the operating system or by entering the BIOS setup utility and revising
the settings.

After satisfactory completion of the Power On Self Test (POST), your LifeBook will load your operating
system.

 CAUTION

Do not carry your LifeBook around with the power on or subject it to shocks or vibration, as
you risk damaging your LifeBook.

 CAUTION

Never turn off your LifeBook during the Power On Self Test (POST) or it will cause an error
message to be displayed when you turn your LifeBook on the next time.
