Using the AC Adapter
When connecting the computer to
external power:
1. Plug the DC power cord into the
DC jack on the computer.
2. Plug the 3-prong AC power
adapter cord into a grounded
electrical outlet.
Use the AC adapter to power the computer or
recharge the battery when it is low.
Caring for the AC Adapter
•
Be sure to only use the AC adapter that comes provided with this product or
a compatible option from the manufacturer. Other adapters may cause
damage to the computer and will not be covered under the warranty.
•
Grasp the adapter plug and not the cord, when unplugging the adapter from
an electrical outlet.
•
If the power cord becomes damaged (exposed or frayed, etc.), replace with
a new AC adapter. Using a damaged cord may cause an electrical shock
and may result in fire.
•
Power off and unplug the AC adapter from the computer before unplugging
it from the electrical outlet.
