Powering off the computer

It's a good idea to power off your computer when you are not
using it for a while.
If you are using the computer for the first time, leave the
computer plugged into a power source (even though the
computer is off) to fully charge the battery. When the battery
light glows green, the battery is fully charged.
Guidelines for powering off the computer:
❖
If you have work in progress and if you are not connected
to a network, use the Hibernate command to save your
system settings to the hard disk so that, when you turn on
the computer again, you automatically return to where
you left off.
❖
To leave the computer off for a longer period, power
down the computer. The Windows
operating system uses the Shut down command to power
down the computer if you are connected to a Windows
network server (domain server) or the Turn Off command
if you are not.
❖
When the hard disk drive light on the system indicator
panel is on, don't turn off the power. Doing so may
damage your hard disk.
