8. Power / Suspend Button

The power/suspend button turns the notebook on and off and it also

acts as a system suspend key. Press momentarily to turn on the

system. Press and hold for at least 4 seconds to turn off the system.

How this key behaves can be defined in [Start > Settings > Control

Panel > Power Options > Advanced] menu. Press the power /

suspend button again to return from the suspend mode. (See

Chapter 3 for more details on system suspend function.)

Note:

When the system power is initially turned on, the Scroll-lock, Cap-lock,

and Numeric keypad LED indicators will light up momentarily to indicate the

start of the Power-On sequence.

10. Instant-On Multimedia Player Launch Key

When the system is powered off, pressing the key launches a

multimedia application that allows you to watch movies files, listen

to music, or view photos in the optical drive or hard disk drive

without having to boot to Windows.

Note:

The way the Instant-On software works is that when the quick key is pressed

(when the system is in Power-Off mode), the system boots to a Linux-based O/S and

media player application.
