Connecting the AC adapter
WARNING! To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment:
Plug the power cord into an AC outlet that is easily accessible at all times.
Disconnect power from the Slate by unplugging the power cord from the AC outlet (not by unplugging
the power cord from the Slate).
If provided with a 3-pin attachment plug on the power cord, plug the cord into a grounded (earthed) 3-
pin outlet. Do not disable the power cord grounding pin, for example, by attaching a 2-pin adapter.
The grounding pin is an important safety feature.
To connect the Slate to external AC power, follow these steps:
1. Plug the AC adapter into the power connector (1) on the Slate.
2. Plug the power cord into the AC adapter (2).
