Grab your paperclip, here comes the fun part! Unplug the power cable, then press and hold the bind button (left side of the console) and eject button at the same time. While holding those, reconnect the power cable and keep holding for 10-15 seconds until you hear two power-up tones. Voilà, you’re in Xbox Startup Troubleshooter!

You don’t. Just plug it in and go through the Troubleshooter when it powers up.
