WARNING!

The supplied power cord is HP approved for your specific geographic region. Use of a non-HP
approved power cord may result in: 1) not meeting individual country specific safety requirements;
2) insufficient conductor ampacity that could result in overheating with potential personal injury and/or
property damage; and 3) an unapproved power cord could fracture resulting in the internal contacts
being exposed, which potentially could subject the user to a shock hazard. HP disclaims all liability
in the event a non-HP approved power cord is used.
