WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the
equipment:
■
Plug the power cord into an AC outlet that is easily accessible at
all times.
■
Disconnect power from the computer by unplugging the power
cord from the AC outlet (not by unplugging the power cord from
the computer.)
■
If provided with a 3-pin attachment plug on the power cord, plug
the cord into a grounded (earthed) 3-pin outlet. Do not disable the
power cord grounding pin; for example, by attaching a 2-pin
adapter. The grounding pin is an important safety feature. It is
possible to receive an electric shock from a system that is not
properly grounded.
To connect the computer to external AC power:
1. Plug the AC adapter into the power connector 1 on rear panel
of the computer.
2. Plug the power cord into the AC adapter 2.
3. Plug the other end of the power cord into an AC outlet 3.
