My Chromebook will not power on

Powering On - If a Chromebook (CB) is charged, opening the lid will usually power on the CB. Sometimes you may have to push the power button (upper right) for a second or two before the CB comes on.

Sometimes the CB goes into a sleep mode. Try this:

Shut CB Lid.

Plug in Power Cable

Open CB Lid wait about 4 seconds

If nothing happens, hold the power button for 3 seconds.

If still nothing happens. Pull power cord, plug power cord back in and repeat the process. Try opening and closing the lid a few times and then push the power button.
