Operating Your Notebook

You can start and stop your notebook using its power button. However, at certain times you may want to use other methods to start or stop the notebook— depending on power considerations, types of active connections, and start-up time.

For details about using the One-Touch buttons and other special features, plus information on caring for and protecting your notebook, see “Operating Your Notebook” in the online Reference Guide.
