These are the different LIGTHS during the boot stage
(a) Light blue → (b) Dark blue → (c) Orange → (d) Light blue → (e) Dark blue or Orange 

In stage (e) the LED-light shows if it booted the regular system or the recovery system. To enter recovery system you need to have the Orange color at stage (e)

Step-by-step guide

These are the steps to enter "recovery mode":

1. Unplug the power cable and plug it back again to start the different boot-stages. 
2. Wait until the boot stage reaches (c), Orange LED-light, and unplug at this stage.
