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 components.

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 on the monitor, printer, and any other peripheral

devices connected to the computer. (Always turn on the

monitor and any peripheral devices before you turn on the

computer.)

3. To turn on the power, press the power button in the upper

right corner of the computer’s front panel.
