Starting your system

Before you start your system for the first time:
Check to ensure that the voltage selector switch on the back of the
computer is still set to the correct voltage for your area. This switch
is set at the factory to the correct voltage (see for voltage selector
switch location).
Make sure all cables are firmly connected to the proper ports on
the rear panel of the computer.
Caution
Make sure the computer and monitor are plugged into an AC outlet
or power strip.
To start the system:

sure all the system components are turned off, and then turn on the
power strip.
