Introduction

AC adaptor

The AC adaptor provides power to the system

and recharges the batteries when they are low.

It comes with a detachable power cord. It encloses

2-pin or 3-pin plug type.
Because it is universal, it can receive a range of

AC voltage from 100 to 240 volts; however, the

output current varies among different models.

Using the wrong model can damage your

computer. Refer to the

AC adaptor

section in

Chapter 2, The Grand Tour.
