You may connect your notebook to the docking station as long as it is not in
power saving mode, i.e., Standby or Hibernate. Connecting the notebook while it
is in power saving mode may result in data loss or a computer malfunction. Note
the following before connecting your notebook to the docking station:
❑
Disconnect the VGA, USB, AC, and Ethernet devices from your notebook.
Leaving these devices connected while you connect the docking station
could damage them.
❑
Ensure that the battery is installed. If you install a charged battery, you can
connect the docking station while the notebook is on.
