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).
