Connecting to a power source
Your computer requires power to operate. Use the power
cord/cable and AC adapter to connect the computer to a live
electrical outlet, or to charge the computer’s battery.
Sample power cord/cable and AC adapter
Hold the power cord/cable by its plug when you connect/
disconnect it. Do NOT pull the cable itself. Doing so may
damage the power cord/cable and result in a short circuit or
electric shock.
When you connect the AC adapter to the computer, always
follow the steps in the exact order as described in the User’s
Manual. Connecting the power cord/cable to a live electrical
outlet should be the last step; otherwise the adapter DC output
plug could hold an electrical charge and cause an electrical
shock or minor bodily injury when touched. As a general
safety precaution, avoid touching any metal parts.
