Plugging In Your Computer to AC Power

To connect your computer to AC power, follow the instructions on the Compaq Hardware Setup poster. Refer to the Government Approvals section of the Mobile Internet PC Reference Manual for worldwide power cord information.

Unplugging the Computer from AC Power

When your computer does not have a charged battery, you should save your work and turn off the computer before unplugging it from AC power.

When a charged battery is in the computer, you can simply unplug it from AC power. The computer automatically switches to battery power.

WARNING: Make sure you can easily reach the electrical outlet. Unplug the AC adapter from the electrical outlet when you want to disconnect power from your computer. Do not leave the AC adapter plugged into the electrical outlet.

aWARNING: Do not place anything on power cords or cables. Arrange them so that no one will accidentally step on or trip over them. Do not pull on a cord or cable. When unplugging from the electrical outlet, grasp the cord by the plug.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock, fire, or damage to the equipment, do not use converter kits sold for appliances to power your computer.
