Powering Off

Before turning off the power, check that the hard drive/optical drive access indicator is off. If you turn
off the power while accessing a disk there is a risk of data loss. To ensure that your notebook shuts
down without error, use the Windows shut down procedure.

Using the correct procedure to shut down from Windows allows your notebook to complete its
operations and turn off power in the proper sequence to avoid errors. The proper sequence is:
