Notes on the AC Adapter
❑
Your computer operates on 100V-240V AC 50/60 Hz.
❑
Do not share the AC outlet with other power-consuming equipment,
such as a copy machine or shredder.
❑
You can purchase a power strip with a surge protector. This device
prevents damage to your computer caused by sudden power surges
such as those that may occur during an electrical storm.
❑
Do not place heavy objects on the power cord.
❑
To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug. Never pull the cord
itself.
❑
Unplug your computer from the wall outlet if you will not be using
the computer for a long time.
❑
When the AC adapter is not used, unplug it from the AC outlet.
