Connecting to a Power Source
Connecting the AC Adapter
A universal AC adapter is provided to supply your computer with power and also charge the computer’s battery pack. The
adapter’s AC input voltage can range anywhere from 100 to 240 volts, covering the standard voltages available in almost
every country.
To connect the computer to an external power source:
Whenever possible, keep the AC adapter plugged into the Notebook and an electrical outlet to recharge the battery.
WARNING ✓
Do not use inferior extension cords as this may result in damage to your Notebook. The Notebook comes with its own AC
adapter. Do not use a different adapter to power the computer and other electrical devices.
WARNING ✓
Never turn off or reset your Notebook while the hard disk is in use and the CD-ROM status icon is lit; doing so can result in
loss or destruction of your data. Always wait at least 5 seconds after turning off your Notebook before turning it back on;
turning the power on and off in rapid succession can damage the Notebook’s electrical circuitry.
