Setting the Voltage Selector Switch
Your system is powered by a 145 Watt power supply. The
power supply input voltage is controlled by a switch on the
computer's back panel that may be set to 115 VAC or 230 VAC.
The computer is shipped with the voltage selector switch set to
115 VAC, which is appropriate for line source voltages between
100 and 120 VAC. This is generally the correct setting if you use
the computer in North America, South America, or Japan.
If you plan to operate the computer in the United Kingdom,
Europe, or some South American countries, you will almost
certainly need to reset the voltage selector switch to 230 VAC.
Line source voltages between 200 and 240 VAC are acceptable
with the switch set to 230 VAC.
Caution
Before you turn on the power to your system, make sure the
voltage selector is set appropriately for the electrical power
source in your location or you will seriously damage your
system.
To change the voltage selector switch setting, insert the tip of a
flat screwdriver into the notch on the switch. Slide the switch to
the right to select 115 VAC or to the left to select 230 VAC.
