standard voltages available in almost every
country.
The power cord for the AC adapter requires a

The best kind of AC power source to connect your Notebook to is a UPS
(Uninterruptible Power Supply). Lacking this, use a power strip with a built-in surge
protector. Do not use inferior extension cords as this may result in damage to your
Notebook. The Notebook comes with its own AC adapter. Do not use a different adapter
to power the computer and other electrical devices.
