Plug one end of the power cord (1) into the AC adapter (3).
2
Plug the other end of the power cord into an AC outlet (2).
3
Plug the cable attached to the AC adapter (3) into the DC In port (4) on the computer or on the (optional) port replicator.

The shape of the DC In plug varies depending on the AC adapter.
✍
To disconnect the computer completely from AC power, unplug the AC adapter.
Make sure that the AC outlet is easily accessible.
If you do not use the AC adapter for a long period of time, put the computer into Hibernate mode. See Using Hibernate Mode
