System Startup

1. Remove all packing materials, and place the computer on a stable surface, and securely attach any peripherals
you want to use with the notebook (e.g. keyboard and mouse) to their ports.
2. Attach the AC/DC adapter to the DC-In jack at the rear of the computer, then plug the AC power cord into an
outlet, and connect the AC power cord to the AC/DC adapter (make sure you use the adapter when first
setting up the computer, as to safeguard the computer during shipping, the battery will be locked to not power
the system until first connected to the AC/DC adapter).
3. Use one hand to raise the lid/LCD to a comfortable viewing angle (it is preferable not to exceed 135 degrees); use
the other hand to support the base of the computer (Note: Never lift the computer by the lid/LCD).
4. Press the power button on the top of the computer for about 2 - 3 seconds to turn the computer "on" (note that
the power LED on the front of the computer will turn from orange to green when the computer powers on).
