Sony PCV-L640 manual Currents at the time of connection

Page 54

VAIO Slimtop™ LCD Computer User Guide

 

Plug all the power cords for your computer and its peripheral equipment into

 

the same AC supply line. AC derived from different supply lines may result

 

in voltage differences that can cause unstable operation or unwanted weak

 

currents at the time of connection.

 

Do not share the AC outlet with any other power-consuming equipment,

 

such as copying machines or shredders.

 

You can purchase a power strip with a surge protector. This device prevents

 

damage to your computer caused by sudden power surges such as those that

￿may occur during an electrical storm.

￿

If you live in an area that experiences frequent power fluctuations, you may

 

want to purchase a UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply). This device contains

 

both a surge protector and a battery backup. The surge protector prevents

 

damage to your computer caused by power surges. The battery backup

 

safeguards your data during a brief period of power loss.

￿

The power control button on the front panel does not turn off the system AC

power. To remove power from the system, you must shut down the computer

as described in the User Guide and then unplug the AC power cord from the

wall outlet or power strip.

Do not place heavy objects on the power cord.

Do not operate the system with the cover removed. Always reinstall the

cover before turning on the system.

To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug. Never pull the cord itself.

Unplug your computer from the wall outlet if you will not be using the

computer for a long time.

 

Before touching anything inside the computer, turn the system off and let it

 

cool for ten minutes. This will ensure that the processor heat sink will not be

￿

hot.

 

Do not attempt to open the power supply. There are no user-serviceable parts

 

in the power supply. To avoid personal injury or damage to your equipment,

 

refer the repair or replacement of the power supply to qualified personnel

 

only.
