Turning on the power
To turn on the power to your eBuddy:
1. Open the LCD panel and locate the power button at the top of the keyboard
(see Figure 1-4).
2. Press the power button to turn on the eBuddy.
3. If you are powering up your eBuddy for the first time, you should follow
the instructions that appear on the screen to set up and configure the system
and software. See Chapter 5, “BIOS setup” for more information on setup
and configuration.
Turning off the power
When power management settings are active (see “Power management setup”
on page 71), system shutdown will automatically turn off the power. If for
some reason the system can not be shut down in this manner, you can turn off
the power by pressing the power button.
You must hold the power button down for approximately five seconds, until the
power turns off.
Close the LCD panel when the system has powered down. The two side latches
will automatically lock the panel securely in the closed position.
Do not unplug the power cord while the eBuddy is powered up, or you could
damage the unit.
eBuddy accessories and peripherals
Setup instructions for the eBuddy’s accessories are provided in Chapter 2,
“Peripherals and accessories.”
