Turning on and booting the computer
Turning the power on
To turn on the computer, simply press the POWER button. The
green indicator next to the POWER button lights to show that the
system unit is powered. Remember that the monitor has its own
power control; see the monitor’s User’s Guide for details.
If the computer does not start when the POWER button is
pressed, check that the system unit and monitor power cords
are securely connected and that the AC power supply is
switched on.
In the United Kingdom, and some other countries, AC plugs
contain fuses. If the fuse in the system unit’s AC plug blows
when you turn it on, this may be caused by an AC power surge,
