located as close to the equipment operator
as possible. When you need to disconnect
power to the equipment, be sure to
unplug the power cord from the electrical
outlet.
Voltage Select Switch
Ensure that the voltage select switch is in
the correct position for the type of voltage
you use (115 VAC or 230 VAC).
Internal Battery
Your computer may contain an internal
battery-powered real-time clock circuit.
Do not attempt to recharge the battery,

Power Cords
If you have not been provided with a
power cord for your computer or for any
AC-powered option intended for use with
your computer, you should purchase a
power cord that is approved for use in your
country.
The power cord must be rated for the
product and for the voltage and current
marked on the product's electrical ratings
label. The voltage and current rating of the
cord should be greater than the voltage and
current rating marked on the product. In
addition, the diameter of the wire must be
2
a minimum of 0.75 mm /18AWG and the
cord should be between 5 and 6.5 feet (1.5
and 2 meters) long. If you have questions
about the type of power cord to use, contact
your Compaq authorized service provider.
Route the power cord so that it will not be
walked on, tripped over, or pinched by
items placed upon or against it. Pay
particular attention to the plug, electrical
outlet, and the point where the cord exits
the product.
Protective Attachment Plug
In some countries, the product cord set
may be equipped with a wall plug having
overload protection. This is a safety
feature. If the plug needs to be replaced,
be sure the Compaq authorized service
provider uses a replacement plug specified
by the manufacturer as having the same
overload protection as the original plug.
Extension Cord
If an extension cord or power strip is used,
make sure that the cord or strip is rated for
the product and that the total ampere
ratings of all products plugged into the
extension cord or power strip do not
exceed 80% of the extension cord or strip
ampere ratings limit.
