POWER SUPPLY
On/Off button
The On/Off button (page 10) is used to power up/down the Notebook.
Pressing the button briefly will turn off your computer using the operating
system. This is the same as clicking
Start then Turn Off Computer . If the
button is held down for longer than 4 seconds, it will force the notebook to
power down without going through the operating system shut down process.
This may be useful if your computer has crashed or stalled.
WARNING! Do not switch off your Notebook while the hard
disk or the optical drive is running and the corresponding media
activity LEDs are lit. Otherwise data may be lost. To protect the
hard disk you should always wait for 20 seconds after powering
down the Notebook before powering it up again.
