The On/Off button (page 17) is used to power up/down the Note-
book. Pressing the button briefly will turn off your computer using
the operating system. This is the same as clicking Start then Turn
Off Computer. If the button is held down for longer than 4 seconds,
it will force the notebook to power down without going through the
operating system shut down process. This may be useful if your
computer has crashed or stalled.
WARNING! Do not switch off your Notebook
while the hard disk or the optical drive is run-
ning and the corresponding media activity
LEDs are lit. Otherwise data may be lost. To
protect the hard disk you should always wait
for 20 seconds after powering down the Note-
book before powering it up again.

OWER DAPTER
Your Notebook is supplied with a universal AC power adapter,
which automatically adjusts to the available power source. The
following levels are supported: AC 100-240V~/ 50-60 Hz.
Please follow the power supply safety instructions found on
page 8.
The power adapter is connected via a power cord to an AC outlet.
The DC power lead from the power adapter is connected to the rear
side of the Notebook (see page 19).
The adapter provides the Notebook with power and also charges the
battery. The power supply indicators of the Notebook (see page 20)
provide details on the operating state. The battery is also being
charged when you are working on your Notebook with the power
adapter.
The power adapter is still live if the Notebook is not connected
with it. You should therefore unplug the power adapter from the
outlet if it is not connected to the Notebook.
