Turning On the Computer
After you have charged the battery (by connecting the AC adapter
to the computer) for at least five minutes, you can turn on your
computer. Be sure to leave the AC adapter connected while you use
the computer for the first time.
To turn on your computer, follow these steps:
1. Turn on any peripheral devices, such as a printer,
an
external
diskette drive, or a color monitor.
2. Make sure your computer’s hard disk switch, located on the
back panel, is turned on. It is best to leave this switch on at all
times.
3. If you have not done so already, insert the Startup/Operating 1
diskette.
4. Turn on the computer by pressing the power switch on the
back panel.
