Figure 1-5, Figure 1-6 and the following instructions:
1. Insert the end of the AC Adapter output cable into the Notebook’s AC port.
Figure 1-6 illustrates this connection. Do not force a connection.
2. The port on the AC Adapter module is shaped like a figure eight with two
pins protruding from it. Connect the power cable to this port.
3. The best power source that you can connect any computer device to is a
UPS (uninterruptable power supply). Your Notebook dealer will be able to
provide you specifics as far as the price and performance of different
brands of UPS devices. If you do not own a UPS and have no desire to
purchase one, your next best power source is an extension cord that has its
own built-in electrical surge protector. Lacking this kind of extension cord,
plug the AC Adapter directly into a grounded electrical outlet.
