HINT:
Although the AC adapter works worldwide, power connectors vary among countries. Before using the AC adapter in a foreign country, you may
need to obtain a new power cable designed for use with the electrical outlets in that country.
The AC adapter converts AC power to the DC power required by the computer. You can connect the AC adapter with your computer either turned on or off.
NOTICE:
When you disconnect the AC adapter from the computer, grasp the adapter cable connector, not the cable itself, and pull firmly but gently to
avoid damaging the cable.
