Chapter 1 Getting Started 9
It takes the PowerBook a few moments to start up. After it starts up, the sleep indicator
light turns off, and Setup Assistant opens automatically.
Note: To start up your PowerBook, press the power button (® ) only once briefly (up to
1 second). Do not continue to hold down or press the power button after the startup
tone or you might cause the computer to shut down again.
2 Use your PowerBook trackpad to select and move items on the screen, just like you use
a mouse with a desktop computer.
 To move the arrow pointer on the screen, slide your finger across the trackpad.
Important: Use only one finger on the trackpad to move the pointer. The trackpad is
designed to allow scrolling when you use two adjoining fingers and the scrolling
feature is turned on. See “Using the Trackpad” on page 22 for more information.
 To select, click, or double-click an item on the screen, use the trackpad button.
