received, calendar reminders, and allows for quick access to settings (for
example, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, brightness).

TROUBLESHOOTING
The laptop is not turning on
- The battery may have depleted. Charge for at least an hour before attempting to turn the laptop back on.
- Make note if any lights turn on, or if any internal components like fans turn on.
Note:
If in storage for extended periods of time, it is recommended to periodically
charge the laptop to keep the battery capacity high, as batteries naturally
deteriorate and eventually die over time.
