3. Setting Up Your LaCie Hard Drive

Connecting the Power Supply

To operate the drive, you must use the AC adapter supplied with it. This adapter may feature a locking mechanism that will prevent the power cord from accidentally being unplugged while your drive is operating.

Warning! Use only the AC adapter supplied with your LaCie drive. Using any other power cable may cause damage to the device and void your warranty.

You may use your LaCie drive when in a foreign country, thanks to its autoswitching 100-240 Volt power supply. To be able to use this feature, you may need to purchase an appropriate adapter. Consult LaCie Technical Support for assistance in choosing the right adapter. LaCie accepts no responsibility for any damage to the drive resulting from the use of an inappropriate adapter. Using an adapter other than one authorized by LaCie will void your warranty.

Connecting the AC Adapter to the Hard Drive

1)Insert the round, four-pin metallic plug of the AC cable into the power input located at the rear of the drive.

2)If the power supply has the locking mechanism, with the metallic plug correctly inserted in the connector, slide the locking mechanism towards the drive. When you hear a faint click, the power cable has been locked in place.

3)Connect the wall-side plug to a power socket. Your drive should now turn on automatically when you connect it to a FireWire port on your computer.

Disconnecting the AC Adapter From the Hard Drive

1)Turn the drive off and wait for it to spin down (+/- 10 sec.).

2)Hold the drive steady with one hand and take hold of the metallic power plug with the other. If necessary, gently slide the locking mechanism back away from the drive until the round, 4-pin metallic plug is visible, then remove the plug from the connector.

Warning! When removing the AC adapter from your drive, pull only on the black plastic locking mechanism and not on the cable itself. Pulling on the cable will not unlock the plug, and may damage the adapter. Always remove the AC adapter before transporting your LaCie drive. Failure to remove the adapter may result in damage to your drive and will void your warranty.
