Power System

Using AC Power

The Eee PC power comprises two parts, the power adapter and the battery power system.The power adapter converts AC power from a wall outlet to the DC power required by the Eee PC.Your Eee PC comes with a universal AC-DC adapter for connection to any 100V-120V as well as 220V-240V outlets without setting switches or using power converters. Different countries may require an adapter to connect the provided US-standard AC power cord to a different standard. Most hotels will provide universal outlets to support different power cords as well as

voltages. It is always best to ask

an experienced traveler about AC outlet voltages before travelling.

THE POWER ADAPTER MAY BECOME WARM TO HOT WHEN IN USE. BE SURE NOT TO COVER THE ADAPTER AND KEEP IT AWAY FROM YOUR BODY.
