You must unplug the power supply cord and remove the battery to disconnect the equipment from the power supply. In that aim, the socket-outlet
should be installed near to the equipment and should be easily accessible.
Input rating: Refer to the rating label on the bottom of the computer and ensure that your power adapter complies with the specified rating.
Under no circumstances should the user attempt to disassemble the power supply. The power supply has no user-replaceable parts. Inside the power
supply are hazardous voltages that can cause serious personal injury.
A defective power supply must be returned to your dealer.
Power Cables and Plug
This Product requires a three-wire grounded power cord and plug. The plug only fits in a grounded power outlet. Make sure the power outlet is properly
grounded before inserting the plug. Do not insert the plug into a non-grounded power outlet. Contact your electrician for details.
The cord length must not exceed 2.5 metres. To prevent electrical hazards, do not remove or disable the ground contact on the power cord. Replace the
power cord if it gets damaged. Contact your dealer for an exact replacement. In Europe, the plug must be rated for 250 VAC, 10 amp minimum. The plug
must display an international agency approval marking. The cord must be suitable for use in the end-user country. Consult your dealer or the local
electrical authorities if you are unsure of the type of power cord to use in your country.
Cables
For cables which are not delivered with the Product in the computer's packaging:
The EMC performance of the system is guaranteed only if the cable and interface use efficient shielding.
The use of shielded interface cable is required for USB, IEEE1394, serial, printer, game, analogue or digital audio/ video, Ethernet LAN, PS2, TV or FM
antennas, and generally all high-speed cable interfaces.
Use only UL Listed No. 26AWG or larger telecommunication cords.
Only Ethernet LAN or RTC modem cable can have length exceeding 3 metres.
Packard Bell recommends that you add a ferrite core round clip to each cable connecting your Packard Bell computer to a hardware device that has not
been delivered with your computer.

L ASER C OMPLIANCE S TATEMENT
The optical devices are tested and certified to be compliant with International Electrotechnical Commission IEC60825-1 and European EN60825-1
standards for Class 1 laser products.
Class 1 laser products are not considered hazardous. The optical devices are designed such that there is never human access to laser radiation above a
Class 1 level during normal operation or prescribed maintenance conditions.
The optical devices installed in your computer are designed for use solely as components of such electronic product and therefore do not comply with
the appropriate requirements of Code of Federal Regulation Sec. 1040.10 and Sec. 1040.11 for COMPLETE laser products.
Because exposure to laser radiation is extremely hazardous, under no circumstances should the user attempt to disassemble the laser device.
P ACKAGING
The packaging of this product is compliant with the European Environmental Directive 94/62/EC from December 20 th 1994 and its equivalent in the
French Legislation by the Decree 98-638 from july 20 th 1998.
