tery pack alone.

cases, the power indicator may turn off once immediately after the power is
turned on.
• After removing the battery pack and the AC adaptor and setting them again
• After sliding the power switch for 4 seconds or longer and turning off the
power
CAUTION
Do not slide the power switch repeatedly.
The computer will forcibly be turned off if you slide and hold the power switch for
four seconds or longer.
Once you turn off the computer, wait for ten seconds or more before you turn on
the computer again.
Do not perform the following operation until the hard disk drive indicator turns off.
• Connecting or disconnecting the AC adaptor

• Touching the keyboard, touch pad or touchscreen
