AC adaptor The AC adaptor converts AC power to DC power and reduces the voltage supplied to the computer. It can automatically adjust to any voltage from 100 to 240 volts and to a frequency of either 50 or 60 hertz, enabling you to use the computer in almost any country/region. To recharge the battery, simply connect the AC adaptor to a power source and the computer. Refer to Chapter 6, Power and Power-Up Modes, for details. 2-14 User's Manual
