 You suspect that your computer needs service or repair.

 You want to clean the case (use only the recommended procedure described later).

 The MacBook Pro power adapter port contains a magnet. Do not place magnetically

sensitive material or devices within 1 inch (25 mm) of this port.

 Never push objects of any kind into the MacBook Pro ventilation openings.

 Use caution when handling the battery. There is risk of explosion if the battery is

environmental guidelines. Don’t puncture, drop, or incinerate the battery.

Setting Up Your MacBook Pro and Power Adapter

Ensure the AC plug or AC power cord is fully inserted into the power adapter before

plugging the adapter into a power outlet. For best results, connect the adapter using

the AC power cord and use a grounded power outlet.

Use only the power adapter that came with your MacBook Pro. Adapters for other

electronic devices (including other MacBook Pro models and other portable

computers) might look similar, but they can negatively affect your computer’s

performance or damage your computer.
