Starting Your Notebook - Sony VAIO PCG-QR20 User Manual

Using your notebook
For some software applications and some peripheral devices, your computer may not enter Hibernate mode when battery life is low. To avoid loss
of data when using battery power, you should save your data frequently and manually activate a power management mode, such as Standby or
Hibernate.
When the computer is directly connected to AC power and has a battery pack inserted in the battery bay, it uses power from the AC outlet.
Removing the battery pack
To remove the battery pack, proceed as follows:
1 Turn off the computer.
2 Open the cover of the battery bay.
3 Pull the transparent strip to remove the battery.
4 Close the cover of the battery bay.


You may lose data if you remove the battery pack while the computer is on and not connected to the AC adapter, or if you remove the battery while
the computer is in Standby mode.

Starting your notebook

To start your computer, proceed as follows:
1 Make sure the handle is folded into the back of the notebook.
2 Slide the LCD lock lever (1) in the direction of the arrow, and lift the cover.
