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.
Never pull on a power cord/cable to remove a plug from a
socket. Always grasp the plug directly. Failure to follow this
instruction may damage the cord/cable, and/or result in a fire
or electric shock, possibly resulting in serious injury.
When you connect the AC adapter to the computer, always
follow the steps in the exact order as described in the User’s
Guide. 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.
