System Shutdown Button
Ordinarily, you power down your system by clicking following the steps above. You can also use the
Power/Suspend/Resume button to power down the system by holding it down for approximately five seconds. This
can be useful if the system is "hung up", but it shouldn’t be used as the normal means of shutdown.
If you cannot power down your system by either of these methods, you can use the Shutdown button on the bottom
of your tablet (See Figure 3 for location). This method should only be used as a last resort when traditional methods
do not work. To shut down your system with the Shutdown button,
first disconnect any AC adapter
that may be
connected. Insert a small tool such as the tip of a paper clip into the opening and press the button for a couple of
seconds. If you power down your system with the Shutdown button, be sure to
plug in an AC adapter before turning
it back on
.
