Warning

Protecting from power source problems

During a power surge, the voltage level of electricity coming into your
notebook can increase to far above normal levels and cause data loss or system
damage. Protect your notebook and peripherals by connecting them to a surge
protector, which will absorb voltage surges and prevent them from reaching
your notebook.

Getting Started
Do not attempt to disassemble the AC adapter. The
AC adapter has no user-replaceable or user-serviceable
parts inside. The AC adapter has dangerous voltages that
can cause serious injury or death. Contact Gateway about
returning defective AC adapters.
High voltages can enter your notebook through the power
cable and the telephone line that is connected to the
modem. Protect your notebook by using a surge protector
with a telephone connection. During an electrical storm,
unplug both the surge protector and the telephone line.
