7.1. On/Off Switch
Open the Notebook and hold the on/off switch down briefly to switch the
Notebook on or off.
Regardless of the operating system, the Notebook will switch off if the switch is held
down for longer than 4 seconds continuously.
CAUTION!
Do not switch your Notebook off while the hard drive or optical
drive is being accessed. Otherwise data may be lost. To protect
the hard drive, you should always wait for 5 seconds after
switching off the Notebook before switching it back on again.
7.2. Mains Power
Your Notebook comes with a universal mains adapter for alternating current which
automatically adapts to the available power source. The following values are
supported: AC 100–240 V~/50–60Hz. Observe the safety information concerning
the power supply. The adapter is connected to an AC outlet via a mains cable.
The DC power cable of the mains adapter is connected to the left side of the
notebook (22) or the underside of the tablet unit (23).
The adapter supplies the Notebook with power and also charges the battery. The
operating lights on the Notebook provide information about the operating mode.
Your battery will also be charged while you work on your Notebook with the mains
adapter connected. The mains adapter also consumes power when the Notebook
is not connected to it. You should therefore always remove the mains adapter plug
from the socket when it is not connected to the Notebook.
CAUTION!
Use only the mains adapter and power cable supplied.
