Suggestions
Adverse conditions on the power connection (such as lightning or a power surge)
may have triggered the machine's internal safety mechanisms. Turn the machine
off and unplug the power cord. Wait for ten minutes, then plug in the power cord
and turn the machine on.
If the problem is not solved, turn off the machine. Plug the power cord into a
different known working outlet and turn on the machine.
