The Power Sources
The computer can be powered by either an AC adapter or a battery pack.
AC Adapter
Use only the AC adapter that comes with your computer. The wrong type of
AC adapter will damage the computer and its components.
1.
Attach the AC adapter to the DC-in jack at the rear of the computer.
2.
Plug the AC power cord into an outlet, then connect the AC power cord to
the AC adapter.
3.
Raise the lid/LCD to a comfortable viewing angle.
4.
Press the power button to turn “on”.
Battery
The battery allows you to use your computer while you are on the road or an
electrical outlet is unavailable. Battery life varies depending on the applica-
tions and the configuration you're using. To increase battery life, let the bat-
tery discharge completely before recharging.
We recommend that you do not remove the battery. For more information on
the battery, please refer to
“Battery Information” on page 3 - 27
