Power Cord & Adapter Warnings
• See the installation instructions before connecting to the power supply.
• Use only the power cord indicated in this manual.
• Power cord sets for use in other countries must meet the requirements of that
country. Use the appropriate AC adapter and power cord for your locale.
• If you use an extension cord with your AC adapter, ensure that the total ampere
rating of the products plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the ampere
rating of the extension cable.
• When using your power cord, make sure to position it around objects so it will not
be cut or punctured.
• When you disconnect a cable, pull on its connector on its strain relief loop, not on
the cable itself. As you pull out the connector, keep it evenly aligned to avoid
bending any connector pins. Also, before you connect a cable make sure both
connectors are correctly oriented and aligned.
• Be sure that nothing rests on your AC adapter’s power cable and that the cable is
not located where it can be tripped over or stepped on.
• Use only the AC adapters that are approved for use with this computer. Use of
another type of adapter may risk fire or explosion.
• Before you connect the computer to a power source, ensure that the voltage rating
of the AC adapter matches that of the available power source.
