Connecting the NotebookConnecting the Notebook
Connecting the computer is as easy is 1-2-3.
1. Insert the battery pack into the battery
compartment and slide the battery
compartment cover in place. The battery pack
has a pull loop at the end for easy removal.
Note: When using a battery pack for the first time,
fully recharge the battery, then disconnect the
adapter to use up the battery before recharging
again. You only need to do this once with a new
battery.
2. Connect one end of the AC adapter to the DC-in
port on the notebook’s rear panel and the other
end to a properly grounded power outlet.
3. Slide the display cover latch to the left to open
the display. Then press the power switch
to
turn on the power. The POST (Power-On Self-
Test) routine executes and Windows begins
loading.
Note: To turn off the power, press the power
switch for more than four seconds. If you are
using Windows 95, we recommend that you use
the Shutdown command to turn off the computer.
If you turn off the computer and want to turn it on
again, wait at least 2 seconds before powering up.
