Appendix D

Two-Prong, Double-Insulated Power Cord Set Requirements

Determine whether your AC power cord has a two-prong or three- prong plug. This appendix presents the two-prong power cord requirements. If you have a three-prong plug, go to Appendix E.

The wide-range input or automatic line switching feature of your computer permits it to operate from any line voltage between 100 and 120 or 220 and 240 volts AC.

The power plug or power cord set (appliance coupler, flexible cord, and wall plug) you received with your computer meets the requirements for use in the country where you purchased your computer.

Power cord sets for use in other countries must meet the require- ments of the country where you use the computer. For more information on power cord set requirements, contact your Compaq authorized dealer, reseller, or service provider.
