Connecting other devices
If you are new to the Macintosh: It’s a good idea to get some experience with your computer before connecting other devices, such as a printer or scanner. Go through the rest of the material in Part I, including the learning materials in Chapter 3.
When you are ready to connect other devices to your Macintosh, follow the instructions in Chapter 5.
Turning the computer on
To turn on the computer for the first time, follow these steps.
1Turn on the monitor.
See the information that came with your monitor for the location of the power switch. On Apple monitors, the power switch has this icon: I.
By the way: You only need to turn on the monitor once. From now on, the monitor will turn off automatically when you shut down the computer, and it will turn on automatically when you start up the computer. (If the monitor is not plugged into the computer, it must be turned on separately each time you turn on the computer.)
