Operation Manual

VAIO notebooks and VAIO desktops with AC adapters

❑ VAIO notebooks are designed to operate only with genuine Sony batteries. Therefore,

and in order to guarantee a safe usage of your VAIO notebook, only a genuine Sony

rechargeable battery pack should be used.

❑ It is highly recommended that you use a genuine Sony AC adapter supplied by Sony

for your product.

❑ This AC adapter is intended for use with IT products only. Please do not use for other

purpose. If the power cable of the AC adapter bundled with your computer comes with

a 3-pin plug, please make sure that the electrical connection will be properly earthed.

❑ To disconnect your computer completely from mains voltage, unplug the AC adapter

from mains. The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily

accessible.

❑ To prevent possible damage and risk of ignition to your computer during transportation,

first attach any supplied connector covers and slot protectors in their appropriate

locations, and secure the battery pack in the battery compartment if it is removable.

❑ Always keep the battery pack installed while the computer is in use.

❑ When travelling to and within the United States of America, please be aware that the

U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) recently published new regulations that

apply to passengers travelling with lithium metal batteries and lithium ion batteries.
