Safety Precautions for Power Cords and Accessories

Use the correct external power source: A product should be operated
only from the type of power source indicated on the electrical ratings
label. If you are not sure of the type of power source required, consult
your Compaq authorized service provider or local power company. For
a product that operates from battery power or other sources, refer to the
operating instructions that are included with the product.
Select the correct voltage: Ensure that the voltage select switch is in
the correct position for the type of voltage you use (115 VAC or 230
VAC).
Use an approved power cord: If you have not been provided with a
power cord for your product, you should purchase a power cord that is
approved for use in your country.
The power cord must be rated for the product and for the voltage and
current marked on the product's electrical ratings label. The voltage and
current rating of the cord should be greater than the voltage and current
rating marked on the product. In addition, the diameter of the wire must
be a minimum of 0.75 mm2/18AWG and the cord should be between 5
and 6.5 feet (1.5 and 2 meters) long. If you have questions about the
type of power cord to use, contact your Compaq authorized service
provider.
Position the power cord carefully: Route the power cord so that it will
not be walked on, tripped over, or pinched by items placed upon or
against it. Pay particular attention to the plug, electrical outlet, and the
point where the power cord exits the product.
