When restarting from or shutting down to the suspend or hibernation mode, do not touch the touch pad (or move the mouse (serial or PS/2 type) if one is connected). There are cases where these devices will fail to operate; you will have to restart your computer using the keyboard ( 
page 10).
Do not power off during the following periods (you may corrupt your data or file):
•While the FDD indicator (
