CAUTION CAUTION Hint Introducing the OmniBook Setting Up the Computer If you have a modem built into your OmniBook, it may not work with multiple phone lines or a private branch exchange (PBX), cannot be connected to a coinoperated telephone, and does not work with party lines. Some of these connections may result in excess electrical voltage and could cause a malfunction in the internal modem. Check your telephone line type prior to connecting your phone line. When using a modem in the Republic of South Africa, an external surge protector may be necessary in order to prevent computer damage by lightening or other electrical surge. If so desired, connect any approved surge protector to the modem cable whenever you are using the modem. To turn on the computer Press the blue power button above the keyboard. Windows starts automatically. If you are turning on the OmniBook for the first time, go to "To set up Windows" on page 17. The power status light (see "Status lights" on page 14) reports the following: • Steady green light: OmniBook is on. • Slow blinking: OmniBook is in System Standby or Suspend mode. • No light: OmniBook is off or in Hibernate mode. See "Managing Power Consumption" on page 38 for information about turning off your OmniBook. If your OmniBook does not turn on when operating on battery power, the battery may be out of power. Plug in the AC adapter and press the blue power button again. To set up Windows The OmniBook has Microsoft Windows-Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT- preinstalled on the hard disk drive. The first time you turn on your computer, the Windows Setup program automatically runs so that you can customize your setup, register your computer, and sign up with an Internet Service Provider (ISP).
