Getting the Computer Running
This section guides you through the procedures for getting the computer ready for operation.
Unpacking
After unpacking the shipping carton, you should find these standard items:
- Notebook computer
- Accessories:
- AC adapter
- AC power cord
- Driver CD
Inspect all the items. If any item is damaged or missing, notify your dealer immediately.
Keep the shipping carton and packing materials in case you need to ship or store the computer in the future.
Connecting to AC Power
The computer operates either on the external AC power or internal battery power. It is suggested that you use AC power
when you start up the computer for the very first time.
CAUTION: Use only the AC adapter included with your computer. Using other AC adapters may
damage the computer.
1. Make sure that the computer is turned off.
2. Plug the DC cord of the AC adapter to the power connector on the rear of the computer (1).
3. Plug the female end of the AC power cord to the AC adapter and the male end to an electrical outlet (2).
4. When the AC adapter is connected, power is being supplied from the electrical outlet to the AC adapter and onto your
computer. Now, you are ready to turn on the computer.
CAUTION:
• When you disconnect the AC adapter, disconnect from the electrical outlet first and then from
the computer. A reverse procedure may damage the AC adapter or the computer.
• When unplugging the connector, always hold the plug head. Never pull on the cord.
NOTE: When the AC adapter is connected, it also charges the battery pack. For information on
using battery power, see Chapter 3.
