Power System
Using AC Power
The Eee PC power comprises two parts, the power adapter and
the battery power system. The power adapter converts AC power
from a wall outlet to the DC power required by the Eee PC. Your Eee
PC comes with a universal AC-DC adapter for connection to any
100V-120V as well as 220V-240V outlets without setting switches or
using power converters. Different countries may require an adapter
to connect the provided US-standard AC power cord to a different
standard. Most hotels will provide universal outlets to support
different power cords as well as voltages. It is always best to ask an
experienced traveler about AC outlet voltages before travelling.
With the AC power cord connected to the AC-DC converter, connect
the AC power cord to an AC outlet (preferably with surge-protection)
and then connect the DC plug to the Eee PC. Connecting the AC-DC
adapter to the AC outlet first allows you to test the AC outlet’s power
and the AC-DC converter itself for compatibility problems before
connecting the DC power to the Eee PC. The power indicator on the
adapter (if available) will light if the power is within accepted ranges.
