Using the computer for the first time
Opening the display panel

Sample opening the display panel
Small bright dots may appear on your TFT display when you
turn on your computer. Your display contains an extremely
large number of thin-film transistors (TFT) and is
manufactured using high-precision technology. Any small
bright dots that may appear on your display are an intrinsic
characteristic of the TFT manufacturing technology.
Turning on the power
1
Make sure any external devices (such as the AC adapter, if
you plan to use AC power rather than battery power) are
properly connected and ready.
2
Check to ensure that all disc drives are empty.
3
Press and hold the power button in until the on/off light
on the system indicator panel glows blue—about one
second.
