The best kind of AC power source to connect your Notebook to is a UPS (Uninterruptible
Power Supply). Lacking this, use a power strip with a built-in surge protector. Do not
use inferior extension cords as this may result in damage to your Notebook. The
Notebook comes with its own AC adapter. Do not use a different adapter to power the
computer and other electrical devices.
Whenever possible, keep the AC adapter plugged into the Notebook and an electrical
outlet to recharge the battery.
Never turn off or reset your Notebook while the hard disk is in use and the HDD status
icon is lit; doing so can result in loss or destruction of your data. Always wait at least 5
seconds after turning off your Notebook before turning it back on; turning the power on
and off in rapid succession can damage the Notebook’s electrical circuitry.
Turning On Your Notebook Computer
Turn on your Notebook by pressing the power button. Hold the button down for a second
or two and release. The Power-On Self Test (POST) runs automatically.
After the POST is completed, the computer reads the operating system from the hard disk
drive into computer memory (this is commonly referred to as “booting” a computer). If
your OS (Operating System such as Windows ME, Windows 2000…. etc) is installed, it
should start automatically.
To turn the Notebook off, save your work and close all open applications, click on Start ,
then Shut Down and select Shut down the computer and click " Yes " or press the power
button for 4-6 seconds.

without an external power source. When the battery pack is fully charged, you can
operate the computer for approximately 2 hours under the following conditions:
