Setting Up Your MacBook Pro and Power Adapter
Ensure the AC plug or AC power cord is fully inserted into the power adapter before
plugging the adapter into a power outlet. For best results, connect the adapter using
the AC power cord and use a grounded power outlet.
Use only the power adapter that came with your MacBook Pro. Adapters for other
electronic devices (including other MacBook Pro models and other portable
computers) might look similar, but they can negatively affect your computer’s
performance or damage your computer.
