Getting Started Connecting to a Power Source Connecting the AC Adapter A universal AC adapter is provided to supply your computer with power and also charge the computer’s battery pack. The adapter’s AC input voltage can range anywhere from 100 to 240 volts, covering the standard voltages available in almost every country. To connect the computer to an external power source: Do not use inferior extension cords as this may result in damage to your notebook. The notebook comes with its own AC adapter.
Whenever possible, keep the AC adapter plugged into the notebook and an electrical outlet to recharge the battery. Never turn off or reset your notebook while the hard disk is in use status icon is lit; doing so can result in loss or destruction of your data. Always wait at least 5 seconds after turning off your notebook before turning it back on; turning the power on and off in rapid succession can damage the notebook’s electrical circuitry.
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Discard used batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions or local laws. Explisionsgefahr bei unsachgernazen Austausch der Batterie. Ersatz nur durch denselben oder einem vom Hersteller empfohlenem ahnlichen Typ. Entsorgung gebrauchter Batterien navh Angaben des Herstellers.
To Remove the Battery Pack: Charging the Battery Pack The installed battery pack charges automatically any time the computer is connected to the AC adapter and an external power source. It is a good idea to occasionally discharge the battery pack fully to preserve its operating performance.

Troubleshooting Your computer has been fully tested and complies with the system specifications before shipping. However, incorrect operations and/or mishandling may cause problems. This chapter provides a reference for identifying and correcting common hardware and software problems that you may encounter. When you encounter a problem, you should first try to go through the recommendations in this chapter.
Be sure all the device drivers are installed properly. For example, without the audio driver properly installed, the speakers and microphone will not work. If external devices such as USB cameras, scanner, printer do not function correctly when connected to the system, it is usually the device’s own problem. Consult the device’s manufacturer first. Some software programs, which have not gone through rigorous coding and testing, may cause problems during your routine use.
