Connecting the Docking Station
You can connect the docking station to the computer while the computer is on or
off. Connecting the computer while it is in power saving mode (Standby or
Hibernate) may result in data loss or a computer malfunction.
1 Disconnect the VGA, USB, AC, and Ethernet devices from your computer to
avoid damaging them.
2 Install the battery if it is not already installed. If you install a charged battery,
you can connect the docking station while the computer is on.
3 Plug one end of the AC adapter cable into the DC IN port on the docking
station, and plug the other end into an AC outlet. The Power indicator turns
on.
4 Insert the two grooves on the front of the computer into the two
corresponding latches protruding from the front of the docking station.
5 Push the two rear corners of the computer onto the docking station until it
clicks into place and is securely fastened to the docking station.
Connecting the Docking Station
