Switching the Notebook On

You’ve now completed the preparations. Now press the on/off button to switch on the

notebook.

Tip:
If you experience a
program or system
crash, press the keys:
Ctrl + Alt + Del at the
same time. If you’re
fortunate this will
enable you to end
only the task that has
crashed and/or restart
the computer (warm
start). If this does not
work, hold down the
on/off button for more
than four seconds
– this will switch off the
computer. You can now
start up the computer
as normal (cold start).

Please note that with
Microsoft

®

Windows

®

operating systems you
should always switch
off the computer as
follows:
Click the Start button.
Select Shut Down.
Click OK.
This avoids any prob-
lems with the hard disk
and operating system.

The operating system is installed the first time you switch on

the computer. Please follow the operating system’s installa-

tion instructions here.

After installation and restarting, the computer is ready to

use.

The basic graphics functions allow you to modify the resolu-

tion, the color depth and the desktop appearance.

You can find more detailed information on this point in the

installation instructions.

Once the computer is switched on, the on/off button can per-

form several functions depending on the energy settings.

In the standard setting, pressing the on/off button again will

switch off the computer.
