“Government Approvals”
section in the Safety and
Comfort Guide for worldwide
power cord information.
To reduce the risk of electrical
shock, fire, or damage to the
equipment, do not use
converter kits sold for
appliances to power your
Notebook. Use only the
Compaq adapter that came
with your Notebook or a
Compaq replacement part.
Do’s
• Ensure that you can reach
the electrical socket easily.
• Unplug the AC adapter
from the electrical socket
when you want to disconnect AC power from your
Notebook.
• Grasp the cord by the plug to unplug
it from the electrical socket.
Don’ts
• Do not leave the AC adapter plugged into the electrical
socket when it is not connected to your Notebook.
• Do not place anything on power cords or cables.
Arrange them so that no one accidentally steps on
or trips over them.
Surge Protectors
Using surge protectors and line conditioners can substantially
reduce the risk of electrical shock and aid in protecting your
Notebook from power-source problems.
During a power surge, the voltage level of electricity coming
into your Notebook can increase and cause data loss or system
damage. Protect your Notebook and peripherals by
connecting them to a surge suppressor, which absorbs voltage
surges and prevents them from reaching your Notebook.
