Your notebook adapts to voltage ranging from 100 to 240 volts. The United
States, Canada and most of Central and South America use 120-Volt alternat-
ing current (AC). Most other countries of the world uses 240-volt AC. There
are a few countries with areas that use direct current (DC) as their main
power source. You need a DC-to-AC converter in particular areas of Argen-
tina, Brazil, India, Madeira and South Africa. To use your system in other
countries, you may need an adapter plug. There are five different plugs avail-
able worlwide (you can buy these at electronics supply store).
