Connecting the Universal Power Supply

There are two methods of connecting the universal power supply: the plug configurations method or the Hewlett Packard power cord method.
Plug Configuration Method
The universal power supply kit features several different plug configurations in one box and the power supply itself in another. The power supply ships with a slide-out plate that must be removed to insert the location-specific plug configurations.
1. Remove the slide-out plate.
2. Select the plug configuration specific to the power requirements of your locale and insert it into the slot that remains after removing the slide-out plate.
