Visibly check all cables and connections. Should all lights be
off, check whether all equipment is supplied with power.
In battery mode, connect the Notebook to the power
adapter and ensure that the battery is charged up.
If you are operating the Notebook with the power
adapter, check the electrical socket, power cord and all
switches in the circuit of the electrical socket.
Switch off the Notebook and check all cable connections.
Check the connections to peripherals. Do not exchange
cables, even though they may look similar. The polarity in
the cables may be different. When it is confirmed that the
Notebook has power and all connections are correct, turn
the Notebook on again.
