WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to
your 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 your 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

possible to receive an electric shock from a system that is not
properly grounded.
