Voltage switch

 

 

 

 

Before turning on your computer, make sure

 

 

 

 

 

that this switch is in the correct position for

 

 

 

 

 

the correct power available. The switch is

 

 

 

 

 

preset at the factory with the correct voltage

 

 

 

 

 

for your area.

 

 

 

 

 

In the United States, the utility power is

 

 

 

 

 

supplied at a nominal 115 volts at 60 Hz. The

 

 

 

 

 

power supply should always be set to this

 

 

 

 

 

when your computer is operating in the

 

 

 

 

 

United States. In other areas of the world,

 

 

 

 

 

such as Europe, the utility power is supplied

 

 

 

 

 

at 230 volts at 50 Hz. If your computer is

 

 

 

 

 

operatingin an environment such as this,the

 

 

 

 

 

voltage switch should be moved to 230. This

 

 

 

 

 

switch may notbe presenton yourcomputer
