For information on the sleep feature of your PowerBook, see “Putting the Computer to Sleep” on the next page.

Move the tip of the arrow to the word “Special” at the top center of the screen.

If the word “Special” does not appear at the top of the screen, you’re working in the wrong program. Click anywhere on the desktop.

With the tip of the arrow on the word Special, press and hold down the trackball button.

While holding down the trackball button, move the arrow until the words “Shut Down” are highlighted, then release the button.

Trouble? If a problem with the computer prevents you from choosing Shut Down—for example, if the computer “freezes” so that the pointer does not respond to the trackball—you can turn off the computer by pressing the power button on the back of the computer. You will lose any unsaved work. Use this method only if you cannot choose Shut Down or Restart from the Special menu.
