CAUTION Add-On Devices Connecting External Devices To use a port replicator A port replicator provides your computer with external connections that you can leave in place whenever you remove the computer from your desk. Instead of disconnecting and reconnecting peripheral devices, you can simply undock and dock the computer. Use only the HP AC adapter included with your computer (or other approved adapter that meets the power requirements of the computer). If "75W" is printed below the AC adapter socket on the computer, do not use a 60watt, 3.16-amp adapter, such as HP F1454A or F1781A, and do not use DC adapter accessories F1455A and F2297A. Using the wrong AC adapter could damage the computer or adapter and may void your warranty (see "Hewlett-Packard Limited Warranty Statement" on page 161). You can dock or undock the computer in any power state: on, off, standby, or hibernation. Make sure, however, that the computer is not entering into or resuming from standby or hibernation when you dock or undock, or the computer could lock up. To dock to the port replicator 1. Plug in the AC adapter, and then connect it to the back of the port replicator. You can also operate the port replicator using power from the computer battery. 2. Align the computer with the locator posts on the port replicator. 88 Corporate Evaluator's Guide
