Power Management

3 - 2 The Power Sources

The Power Sources

The computer can be powered by either an AC adapter or a battery pack.

AC Adapter

Use only the AC adapter that comes with your computer. The wrong type of

AC adapter will damage the computer and its components (see page D - 6).

1. Attach the AC adapter to the DC-In jack at the rear of the computer.

2. Plug the AC power cord into an outlet, and then connect the AC power cord

to the AC adapter.

3. Raise the lid/LCD to a comfortable viewing angle.

4. Press the power button to turn “On”.

Battery

The battery allows you to use your computer while you are on the road or

when an electrical outlet is unavailable. Battery life varies depending on the

applications and the configuration you're using. To increase battery life, let

the battery discharge completely before recharging (see “How do I com-

pletely discharge the battery?” on page 3 - 12).

We recommend that you do not remove the battery. For more information on

the battery, please refer to “Battery Information” on page 3 - 9.
