Slide the power switch and hold it for approximately one second until the power indicator turns on before releasing it.
CAUTION
While booting, avoid the following until the hard disk drive indicator ( | ) |
has turned off.
•Connecting or disconnecting the AC adaptor.
•Touching the power switch.
•Performing any keyboard, touch pad, touchscreen (only for models with touchscreen), or external mouse operations.
•Closing the display.
Once the computer is powered off, you must wait at least ten seconds before powering it on again.
When using this computer with the battery pack only, it may take some time for the power to turn on after sliding the power switch. In this case, slide the power switch and hold it for more than one second. This phenomenon occurs because the standby power is minimized while the power is turned off; it is not a malfunction.
When the CPU temperature rises, the computer may not power on to pre- vent the CPU from overheating. Should this happen, allow the computer to cool down then switch the power on again.
If the computer still does not power on, contact your technical support office. ( page 32)
