CONNECTOR

Attaches an AC adapter to the computer.

The AC adapter converts AC power to the DC power required by the computer. You can connect the
AC adapter with your computer turned either on or off.

CAUTION:

The AC adapter works with electrical outlets worldwide. However, power connectors and power

strips vary among countries. Using an incompatible cable or improperly connecting the cable to the power strip
or electrical outlet may cause fire or equipment damage.

NOTICE:

When you disconnect the AC adapter cable from the computer, grasp the connector, not the cable itself,

and pull firmly but gently to avoid damaging the cable.

NOTE:

For optimum system performance, you should always use the 130-W AC adapter that came with your

computer. Using less-powerful AC adapters may cause you to receive a

WARNING

message and may also cause

your computer to experience a degradation in performance.

Connects an external VGA-compatible monitor.
