Handling the AC adaptor
Do not twist or pull the AC power cord forcefully. Doing so may damage the

Use only the specified AC adaptor with your computer. Using an AC adaptor
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
