Turn your computer on.
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 or the tablet buttons.
• Performing any keyboard, touch pad, touchscreen (or external mouse) op-
erations.
• 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 oc-
curs 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 prevent
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 Panasonic Technical Support.
NOTE
When the power is turned on, sometimes the message "Warming up the sys-
tem. Please wait..." (up to 25 minutes) is displayed or the battery indicator
alternately blinks green and orange. This function is designed to prevent
hard disk drive malfunctions that may occur at low temperatures. Wait for
the computer to start up.
