CHAPTER 3: Using Your Gateway Notebook
14
Connecting the AC adapter
Warning
Do not attempt to
disassemble the AC
adapter. The AC
adapter has no
user-replaceable or
user-serviceable parts
inside. The AC adapter
has dangerous
voltages that can
cause serious injury or
death. Contact
Gateway about
returning defective AC
adapters.
Caution
Make sure that you use
the AC adapter that
came with your
notebook or one of the
same type purchased
from Gateway.
Replace the power
cord if it becomes
damaged. The
replacement cord
must be of the same
type and voltage
rating as the original
cord or your notebook
may be damaged.
Important
If the main and
optional secondary
battery are not fully
charged before you
use your notebook on
battery power for the
first time, the battery
life may be much
shorter than you
expect. If the battery
life seems short even
after being charged for
three hours, a battery
may need to be
recalibrated. For
information on
recalibrating a battery,
see “Recalibrating the
battery(ies)” on
page 53 .
You can run your notebook using an AC adapter
or your notebook’s main or optional secondary
battery. The battery(ies) was shipped to you
partially charged. You should use the AC adapter
right away to fully charge the battery(ies). Allow
three hours for the battery(ies) to fully charge.
To connect the AC adapter:
1
Connect the power cord to the AC adapter.
2
Connect the AC adapter to your
notebook’s power connector.
