The AC adapter converts AC power to the DC power required by the computer. You can connect the AC adapter with your computer turned either on or off.

 

port cover —

Protects the interior of the computer from debris that might enter through the port and connector openings. Also protects the connector pins

from potential damage that might occur when the computer is used in environments away from the safety of a desk top. To access the ports on the back of
the computer, rotate the cover downward. To remove the cover entirely, close the display, turn the computer upside down, and lift the cover away from the
computer. To replace the cover, perform the removal procedure in reverse.

 

air vents —

The computer uses an internal fan to create airflow through the vents, which prevents the computer from overheating.

CAUTION:

The AC adapter works with electrical outlets worldwide. However, power connectors and power strips vary among countries. Using an

incompatible cable or improperly connecting the cable to the power strip or electrical outlet may cause fire or equipment damage.

NOTICE:

When you disconnect the AC adapter cable from the computer, grasp the connector, not the cable itself, and pull firmly but gently to avoid

damaging the cable. When you wrap the AC adapter cable, ensure that you follow the angle of the connector on the AC adapter to avoid damaging the
cable.

NOTE:

The computer turns on the fan when the computer gets hot. Fan noise is normal and does not indicate a problem with the fan or the computer.

CAUTION:

Do not block, push objects into, or allow dust to accumulate in the air vents. Do not store your computer in a low-airflow environment,

such as a closed briefcase, while it is running. Restricting the airflow can damage the computer or cause a fire.
