About Your Computer
serial connector
Connects serial devices, such as a mouse or handheld
AC adapter connector —
The AC adapter converts AC power to the DC power required by the computer. You can connect the AC
with your computer turned either on or off.
CAUTION: The AC adapter works with electrical outlets worldwide. However, power
connectors and power strips vary among countries. Using an incompatible cable or
connecting the cable to the power strip or electrical outlet may cause fire or equipment
damage.
NOTICE: When you disconnect the AC adapter cable from the computer, grasp the connector, not the
cable itself, and pull firmly but gently to avoid damaging the cable.
air vents — The computer uses an internal fan to create airflow through the vents, which prevents the
computer from overheating.
NOTE: The computer turns on the fan when the computer gets hot. Fan noise is normal and does not
indicate a problem with the fan or the computer.
CAUTION: Do not block, push objects into, or allow dust to accumulate in the air vents. Do
store your computer in a low-airflow environment, such as a closed briefcase, while it is
running. Restricting the airflow can damage the computer or cause a fire.
