Turning off the computer
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. With the 
computer off, it may take up to several hours to recharge the 
main battery.
Guidelines for turning off the computer:
If you have work in progress and are not connected to a 
network, you can use the operating system Stand by 
command to save your system settings to memory so that, 
when you turn on the computer again, you automatically 
return to where you left off.
To leave the computer off for a longer period, you can use 
the Turn Off command (Windows
®
 XP Home operating 
system, and Windows
®
 XP Professional operating system 
when not connected to a domain server) or the Shut down 
command (Windows
®
 XP Professional operating system 
when connected to a domain server) instead. 
Never turn off the power while a drive-in-use light on the 
system indicator panel is on. Doing so may damage your 
media or drive.
