The Power Sources
The computer can be powered by either an AC/DC adapter or a battery pack.
AC/DC Adapter
Use only the AC/DC adapter that comes with your computer. The wrong type of AC/
DC adapter will damage the computer and its components.
1. When first setting up the computer use the following procedure (as to safe-
guard the computer during shipping, the battery will be locked to not power the
system until first connected to the AC/DC adapter and initially set up as below):
• Attach the AC/DC adapter cord to the DC-In jack at the rear of the computer, then plug the AC
power cord into an outlet, and connect the AC power cord to the AC/DC adapter and the battery
will now be unlocked.
2. Keep the AC/DC adapter connected to the computer to fully charge the battery to
100% capacity (the battery LED indicator will turn green).
3. Use one hand to raise the lid/LCD to a comfortable viewing angle (do not exceed
130 degrees); use the other hand to support the base of the computer (Note:
Never lift the computer by the lid/LCD).
4. Press the power button on the computer to turn it on.
