1.7 Turning Your Netbook On and Off

Turning on the power
Open the Netbook lid, press and hold the power switch for one or
two seconds. The power indicator will glow blue once the computer
is powered on.
Turning off the power
If you are not going to use your Netbook computer for a while, it is
best to turn off its power. Before turning off power, close all program
6 6
first and shut down the operating system.
After turning off your Netbook computer, make it a habit to leave the
LCD panel open for a while after it has been used for an extended
period of time. This allows the interior of your Netbook computer to
cool off. Closing the panel will force the heat up against the LCD
screen, and doing so after a while may damage the screen. More
importantly, never close the LCD panel for a long period of time
when the computer is on or when the power saving function is
disabled.
Suspend mode
You can adjust default power management settings in the Power
Option/Advanced dialog box. The Power Options dialog box
provides several operating functions after your computer has been
idle for a while.
