CAUTION: Safety Instructions
Use the following safety guidelines to help ensure your own personal safety and to help protect your computer and working environment from potential damage.

General

Do not attempt to service the computer yourself unless you are a trained service technician. Always follow installation instructions closely. If you use an extension power cable with your AC adapter, ensure that the total ampere rating of the products plugged in to the extension power cable does not exceed the ampere rating of the extension cable. Do not push objects into air vents or openings of your computer. Doing so can cause fire or electric shock by shorting out interior components. Do not block air vents or openings of your computer. Doing so can damage the computer or cause fire. Do not store your computer in a low-airflow environment, such as a carrying case or a closed briefcase, while the computer is turned on or connected to the AC adapter. Restricting airflow can damage the computer or cause a fire. Keep your computer away from radiators and heat sources. Also, do not block cooling vents. Avoid placing loose papers underneath your computer; do not place your computer in a closed-in wall unit or on a bed, sofa, or rug. Place the AC adapter in a ventilated area, such as a desk top or on the floor, when you use it to run the computer or to charge the battery. Do not cover the AC adapter with papers or other items that will reduce cooling; also, do not use the AC adapter inside a carrying case. The AC adapter may become hot during normal operation of your computer. Use care when handling the adapter during or immediately after operation. Do not allow your portable computer to operate with the base resting directly on exposed skin for extended periods of time. The surface temperature of the base will rise during normal operation (particularly when AC power is present). Allowing sustained contact with exposed skin can cause discomfort or, eventually, a burn. Do not use your computer in a wet environment, for example, near a bath tub, sink, or swimming pool or in a wet basement If your computer includes an integrated or optional (PC Card) modem, disconnect the modem cable if an electrical storm is approaching to avoid the remote risk of electric shock from lightning via the telephone line.

AC adapter

AC adapter connector
The AC adapter converts AC power to the DC power required by the computer. You can connect the AC adapter with your computer turned either on or off. CAUTION: The AC adapter works with electrical outlets worldwide. However, power connectors and power strips vary among countries. Using an incompatible cable or improperly connecting the cable to the power strip or electrical outlet may cause fire or equipment damage. CAUTION: Place the AC adapter in a ventilated area, such as a desk top or on the floor, when you use it to run the computer or to charge the battery. Do not cover the AC adapter with papers or other items that will reduce cooling; also, do not use the AC adapter inside a carrying case. NOTICE: When you disconnect the AC adapter cable from the computer, grasp the connector, not the cable itself, and pull firmly but gently to avoid damaging the cable. S-V I D E O TV- O U T C O N N E C T O R Connects your computer to a TV. For more information, see page 58.

System and Battery Performance Optimization
System Performance Overview
System performance may be reduced under specific conditions to prevent automatic system shutdown and potential data loss. Conditions under which performance is reduced include:
P R O C E S S O R G E T S H O T Performance is reduced when system temperature exceeds established thermal parameters. This performance reduction helps to regulate the system and surface temperatures, which prevents the computer from shutting down due to excessive processor temperatures. A C A D A P T E R T H R O U G H P U T Performance is reduced when the computer is running on AC power and power consumption exceeds the established parameters of the AC Adapter. This performance reduction ensures that the system does not try to consume more power than the AC adapter can provide.
B A T T E R Y C A P A C I T Y Performance is reduced when the computer is running on battery power and power consumption exceeds the batterys rated capacity or exceeds allowable safe discharge levels, or when the battery surface temperature exceeds 60C.
The AC adapter charges a completely discharged battery in approximately 3 hours with the computer turned off. Charge time is significantly longer if the computer is on and running at high processor speeds and system activity levels. If you run your computer at high system activity levels for extended periods of time and your battery is not charging, try running your system in Low Power Mode. Low Power Mode can improve battery charge time and battery life. Depending on system activity levels, system performance may be reduced. To set Low Power Mode:
NOTE: You can also click the power meter icon on the taskbar. 3
Click the Start button Control Panel Performance and Maintenance Power Options. Click the Power Schemes tab. In the Power schemes drop-down menu, click Low Power Mode.

For more information on power management, see the Tell Me How help file. To access the help file, see page 80.
