ADAPTER CONNECTOR
— Attaches an AC adapter to the computer. The AC adapter converts AC power to the
DC power required by the computer. You can connect the AC adapter with your computer turned either on or off.
CAUTION:
The AC adapter works with electrical outlets worldwide. However, power connectors and power
strips vary among countries. Using an incompatible cable or improperly connecting the cable to the power strip
or electrical outlet may cause fire or equipment damage.
NOTICE:
When you disconnect the AC adapter cable from the computer, grasp the connector, not the cable itself,
and pull firmly but gently to help prevent damage to the cable.
