Setting Up Your Mac mini
Place your Mac mini right side up on a firm surface. Use only the power cord that came with your Mac mini; other power cords may not work.
Important: Cooling air enters your Mac mini through the gap around the bottom cover and exits through the vent on the back. Don’t place your Mac mini on a soft surface (such as a blanket or deep carpet) that interferes with airflow around the bottom cover, and don’t block the back vent.
Step 1: Plug the power cord into the back of your Mac mini, and then plug the other end into a power outlet.
