To use the port replicator

With the optional port replicator, you can connect external components—and then avoid
disconnecting and reconnecting them each time you take the computer on the road. You
can find additional information about the port replicator in the manual that comes with it.
To connect to the port replicator
1. Plug in the AC adapter, then connect it to the rear of the port replicator. Make sure
that the AC status light is on.
2. Align the computer with the locator pins on the port replicator.
3. Press the computer down until it clicks into place. Make sure that the dock status light
is on.
4. Open the computer and slide the power switch to the left to turn it on.
After the computer is turned on, you can close the lid while it is running.
