Turning On the Computer
After you set up your system, you’re ready to turn on the power.
But first, read the following safety rules to avoid accidentally
damaging your computer or injuring yourself:
Do not unplug cables from the computer when the power is
on.
Never turn on the computer with a protector card in the
diskette drive.
Never turn off or reset your computer while a disk drive
light is on. This can destroy data stored on disk or make an
entire disk unusable.
Always wait at least five seconds after you turn off the
power before you turn it on again. Turning the power off
and on rapidly can damage the computer’s circuitry.
Do not leave a beverage on top of or next to your system or
any of its components. Spilled liquid can damage the
circuitry of your equipment.
Always turn off the power, disconnect the computer’s power
cord, and wait five seconds before you remove the cover.
Only remove the cover to access optional devices or change
jumper settings.
Follow these steps to turn on your system:
1. Make sure the power cord is plugged into the AC power
inlet on the back panel of the computer and into a three-
prong, 120-volt, grounded electrical outlet.
2. Turn your computer around so the front panel faces you and
place your other system components in an arrangement that
suits you. (See step 1, “Choosing a Location,” for a typical
arrangement.)
