NOTE: The connector for your AC adapter on your computer may look different than the
connector in the following graphic.
A IR V E NT S — The computer uses an internal fan to create airflow through the vents, which
prevents the computer from overheating.
CAUTION: Do not block, push objects into, or allow dust to accumulate in the air
vents. Do not store your computer in a low-airflow environment, such as a closed
briefcase, while it is running. Restricting the airflow can damage the computer
or cause a fire.
NOTE: The fan runs constantly, and fan speed may vary depending on usage. Fan noise is
normal and does not indicate a problem with the fan or the computer.
AC A D A PT ER C O NN EC T O R — Attach an AC adapter to the computer.
NOTE: The AC adapter in the following graphic may not look exactly like the AC adapter that
