- Before turning off the power, confirm that the access indicator lamps (
see Appendix 1, "Name

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.

while the PC is on, re-connect he power cord or wait until AC power recovers. When the power
recovers, the PC is automatically turned on and started. "Press <F2> to enter SETUP" may be

and restart the PC.

operating, press the power switch for at least four seconds and confirm that the power lamp
goes off.

the message, [Press <F1> to resume, <F2> to setup], may be displayed at rebooting. In this
case, press [F2] key, confirm the setup menu, and then reboot.
