Power System
Using AC Power
The Notebook PC power is comprised of two parts, the
power adapter and the battery power system. The power
adapter converts AC power from a wall outlet to the DC
power required by the Notebook PC. Your Notebook PC
comes with a universal AC-DC adapter. That means that
you may connect the power cord to any 100V-120V as well
as 220V-240V outlets without setting switches or using
power converters. Different countries may require that an
adapter be used to connect the provided US-standard AC
power cord to a different standard. Most hotels will
provide universal outlets to support different power cords
as well as voltages. It is always best to ask an experienced
traveler about AC outlet voltages when bringing power
adapters to another country.
TIP: You can buy travel kits for the Notebook PC that includes power and modem adapters for almost
every country.
With the AC power cord connected to the AC-DC converter, connect the AC power cord to an AC outlet (preferably with
surge-protection) and then connect the DC plug to the Notebook PC. Connecting the AC-DC adapter to the AC outlet
first allows you to test the AC outlet’s power and the AC-DC converter itself for compatibility problems before connecting
the DC power to the Notebook PC. The power indicator on the adapter (if available) will light if the power is within
accepted ranges.
