Important: The power adapter for your computer is a high-voltage component and should not be opened for any reason, even when it’s unplugged. Do not allow children access to the interior of any electrical product and do not permit them to handle any cables. If the power adapter needs service, see the service and support information that came with your Mac mini for more information.

Warning: Use only the power adapter that came with your computer and the AC cord that came with your power adapter. Adapters and cords for other electronic devices may look similar, but using them may affect your computer’s performance or damage your computer. The AC power cord has a three-wire grounding plug (a plug that has a third grounding pin) that will fit only a grounded AC outlet. If you are unable to insert the plug into an outlet because the outlet is not grounded, contact a licensed electrician to replace the outlet with a properly grounded outlet.
