4. Lift off the computer.
When you connect the AC adaptor to the Port Replicator, always follow the
steps in the exact order as described above. Connecting the power cable
to a live electrical outlet should be the last step, otherwise the adaptor DC
output plug could hold an electrical charge and cause an electrical shock
or minor bodily injury when touched. As a general safety precaution, avoid
touching any metal parts.
Make sure the Eject LED is out. Do not try to disconnect the computer
while the Eject LED is glowing.
Do not lift up the computer without sliding the computer backwards,
otherwise the Port Replicator’s hooks may be damaged.
