Yep, 'up' is the way to go. Though I wonder if 'power on' would work too, just to mess with the exam takers.

Some people might think it's 'activate', but it's actually 'up' because it brings the interface up.

Ha! 'up' is the answer, no doubt. I bet the exam writer is chuckling at how simple this one is.

Hmm, 'up' seems too obvious. I'm going to think outside the box and try 'activate' instead.
