Getting Started
Setting up your computer
Your computer requires power to operate. Use the power
cable and AC adapter to connect the computer to a live power
outlet, or use the main battery and the optional high-capacity
battery.
Connecting to an AC outlet
The AC adapter enables you to power the computer from a
wall outlet and to charge the computer's main battery.
DANGER: Hold the power cable by its plug when you connect/
disconnect it. Do NOT pull the cable itself. Doing so may damage
the power cable and result in a short circuit or electric shock.
To connect the computer to an external power source:
1 Connect the socket end of the power cable to the AC
adapter.
Connecting the power cable to the AC adapter
CAUTION: Use only the AC adapter supplied with the computer.
Using any other AC adapter could damage the computer and void
your warranty.
2 Connect the DC-OUT end of the AC adapter cable to the
DC-IN jack on the back of the computer.
