Have written in editor

I don't know how to write and save this then exit to restart machine. What do I do from here? Thanks.
vi / vim always begins in command mode. You can press [Esc] key anytime to return to command mode. Press i to insert text. To save and exit from vi / vim, press [Esc] key and type ZZ
