Connect your computer to a power outlet
CAUTION
Be sure the AC adapter is connected until completing Step 8 on page 9.
Handling the AC adapter
Do not twist or pull the AC power cord forcefully. Doing so may damage the

connections.
Use only the specified AC adapter with your computer. Using an AC adapter
other than the one supplied might damage the battery and/or the computer.
When the DC plug is not connected to the computer, disconnect the AC cord
from your AC wall outlet.
Problems such as sudden voltage drops/surges may arise during periods of thun-
der and lightning. Since this could adversely affect your computer, an
uninterruptible power source (UPS) is highly recommended unless the battery
pack is installed.
