Data error shutting down open bsd

The method I use to shut down my box is as follows :

shutdown +3 -h

logout

the box indicates shutdown complete, so I switch off the power. When I reboot next time I get a Warning message in the bootup screen stating the that it was not shutdown correctly. being a newbie I'm kind of hoping for the correct method to stop these messages.
