Turning the computer off
To turn your computer off, you choose Shut Down from the Special menu.
Detailed instructions follow.
1 Move the tip of the arrow ( 8 ) to the word “Special” at the top center of the screen.
If the word “Special” does not appear at the top of the screen, you’re working
in the wrong program. Pull down the Application menu (to the right of the
Guide [h] menu) and choose Finder. Then try step 1 again.
2 With the tip of the arrow on the word “Special,” press and hold down the mouse button.
3 While holding down the mouse button, move the arrow down until the words “Shut
Down” are highlighted, then release the mouse button.
Choosing Shut Down readies the hard disk for a fast restart next time you turn
on the computer. It also prompts you to save any unsaved work on a disk
before turning the power off.
To turn the computer on again, just press the Power key on the keyboard.
IMPORTANT The power button on the front of the computer should not be
used to turn off your computer unless there is a problem that prevents it from
being turned off with the Shut Down command. (You could lose unsaved
work.) To make sure your work is saved, use the Shut Down command.
