First-time Operation
6
Turn your computer on.
Slide the power switch and hold it for approximately one second until the power indi-
cator turns on before releasing it.
Do not slide the power switch and hold it for more than four seconds; this will
cause the power to be turned off forcibly.
Do not slide the power switch repeatedly.
Once the computer is powered off, you must wait at least ten seconds before
powering it on again.
4
Connect your computer to a power outlet.
Be sure the AC adaptor is connected until completing the first-time use opera-
tion.
When using the computer for the first time, do not connect any peripheral de-
vice except the battery pack and AC adaptor to the computer.
Handling the AC adaptor
Do not twist or pull the AC power cord forcefully. Doing so may damage the
connections.
Use only the specified AC adaptor with your computer. Using an AC adaptor
other than the one supplied might damage the battery and/or the computer.
When the DC plug is not connected to the computer, disconnect the AC cord
from your AC wall outlet.
Problems such as sudden voltage drops may arise during periods of thunder
and lightning. Since this could adversely affect your computer, an uninterruptible
power source (UPS) is highly recommended unless the battery pack is installed.
