Never operate this computer in AC mode while standing in water.

You can operate it in DC or battery mode. 

If you should encounter a problem in powering up:  

1. 

Verify all connectors are properly connected. 

2. 

Verify your boot drive. 

3. 

Boot your system with only the power cord connected to the 
computer. This is the minimum required to see if the system is 
working. 

4. 

If your system still does not start after steps 1-3, contact your 
nearest Technical Support department for assistance. See the 
“Technical Support” section of this manual for contact information.
