Be sure the AC adaptor is connected until completing Step

on page 11.
When using the computer for the first time, do not connect any peripheral de-
vice except the battery pack and AC adaptor to the computer.
Handling the AC adaptor
Do not twist or pull the AC power cord forcefully. Doing so may damage the
connections.
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
from your AC wall outlet.
Problems such as sudden voltage drops may arise during periods of thunder and
lightning. Since this could adversely affect your computer, an uninterruptible power
source (UPS) is highly recommended unless the battery pack is installed.
Confirm that the latch lock is correctly in place. Should you decide to carry your
computer without the latch lock in place, the cover may open causing the battery
pack to fall out.
