Notes on the AC Adapter

may occur during an electrical storm.

❑
To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug. Never pull the cord itself.
❑
Unplug your computer from the wall outlet if you will not be using the
computer for a long time.
❑
The LED indicator on the AC adapter may be turned on until the AC adapter
is unplugged from your notebook.
