a compatible AC adapter or battery purchased separately as an accessory from HP.

2Insert the battery

3Connect the computer to external power

Basic setup

Getting Started 3

ÅWARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to your equipment,

observe these practices:

■Plug the power cord into an AC outlet that is easily accessible at all times.

■Disconnect power from the computer by unplugging the power cord from the AC

outlet (not by unplugging the power cord from the computer).

■If provided with a 3-pin attachment plug on your power cord, plug the cord into

a grounded (earthed) 3-pin outlet. Do not disable the power cord grounding pin,

for example, by attaching a 2-pin adapter. The grounding pin is an important

safety feature.

Leave the computer connected to external power until the battery is fully charged

and the battery light turns off.

4Open the computer

4Getting Started

Basic setup

✎If the computer will not start up, plug the computer into AC power and be sure

that the power cord and AC adapter connections are secure.

To turn off the computer:

1. Save your work, and close all programs.

2. Click Start, click Turn Off Computer, and then click Turn Off.

If you have been registered to a network domain, the button you click will be called

Shut Down instead of Turn Off Computer.

End users will typically follow the manual logon steps. Consult your network

administrator for instructions.

✎For additional security, network administrators can use HP Logon Manager to

disable and reenable automatic logon and to change the automatic logon user

name, password, and domain. For details, refer to the HP Mobile Thin Client

reference guides on the Web.

Automatic logon

The factory setting for the computer is automatic logon.

✎Only the network administrator can change automatic logon properties.

With automatic logon, the Log On to Windows dialog box is bypassed, which

brings you directly to the Windows desktop. So, to log on as a different user, follow

these steps:

1. Press and hold down the left Shift key, and then click Start.

2. Click Shut Down, and then click Log Off.

The Log On to Windows dialog box opens, allowing you to manually enter

the logon information.

Manual logon

If the automatic logon is disabled by the network administrator, log on as follows:

1. In the Log On to Windows dialog box, type your information in the User

Name and Password boxes.

❏For a user, the initial user name and password are both User.

❏For an administrator, the initial user name and password are both

Administrator.

2. Click OK.

Note the following considerations:

■To prevent unauthorized access to your information, change your password as

soon as possible after setup.

■Passwords are case sensitive, but user names are not.

Administrator logon

To access the administrator logon screen in either automatic or manual logon mode:

1. Hold down the left Shift key, and then click Start.

2. Click Shut Down, and then click Log Off.

The Administrator logon screen is displayed.

You can use the HP Logon Manager to permanently modify the default user mode.

For details, refer to the administrator’s guide on the Web.
