After turning off your notebook, make
sure that it has been Off at least 10
seconds before turning the power switch
to On. If you do not you could cause a
system error. When you turn on your
notebook be sure you have a power
source. This means that at least one
battery is installed and charged, or that
the AC adapter or the auto/airline
adapter is connected and has power.

Do not carry your notebook around
with the power on or subject it to shocks
or vibration, as you risk damaging

The main Lithium ion battery is not
charged when you purchase your note-
book. Initially you will need to connect
the AC adapter to use it. If you purchase
an optional second Lithium ion battery, it
will not be charged when you get it, you
will need to charge it prior to use.
When the power switch is turned on, your
notebook carries out a Power On Self Test
(POST) to check the internal parts and config-
uration. If a fault is found a beep will sound
and/or an error message will be displayed.
(See Troubleshooting on pages 138-140) Depend-
ing on the nature of the problem you may be
able to continue by starting the operating
system or by entering the setup utility and
revising the settings.

power switch in the Off position, check that the
Hard Drive/Zip Drive,CD-ROM,PC Card and
the Floppy Disk Drive Access indicators are all
Off. (See Figure 2-3, page 20.) If you turn off the
power while accessing a disk or PC Card there
is a risk of loss of data. The Off position is
reached by facing the keyboard and display
panel,and moving the switch toward the front
of your notebook. To assure that your notebook
shuts down without error, use the Windows 95
shut down procedure.
