It is a good idea to turn off your computer when you are not using it 
for a while.

If you are using the computer for the first time, leave the computer 
plugged into a power source (even though the computer is off) to 
fully charge the main battery.

Depending on the operating system installed, you have more than 
one option available for turning off the computer: Turn Off or Shut 
Down, Hibernate, and Standby. Each option has its advantages.

Factors to consider when choosing either Turn Off or Shut Down:

❖

Use the Turn Off command if you are not connected to a 
domain server.

❖

Use the Shut Down command if you are connected to a domain 
server.
