Connecting a Power Source
You can use either AC power or a rechargeable battery pack as a power source.
Using the AC Adapter
1
Plug the cable attached to the AC adapter into the DC In port on the 
notebook.
2
Plug one end of the power cord into the AC adapter.
3
Plug the other end of the power cord into an AC outlet.
Notes on the AC Adapter
Your notebook operates on 100V-240V AC 50/60 Hz.
Do not share the AC outlet with other power-consuming equipment, such as 
a copy machine or shredder.
You can purchase a power strip with a surge protector. This device prevents 
damage to your notebook caused by sudden power surges such as those that 
may occur during an electrical storm.
Do not place heavy objects on the power cord.
To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug. Never pull the cord itself.
Unplug your notebook from the wall outlet if you will not be using the 
notebook for a long time. 
The LED indicator on the AC adapter may be turned on until the AC adapter 
is unplugged from your notebook.
