1.6 Notebook Accessories and System Options
It is also important to understand the accessories that come along with the notebook and the options for fully utilizing the capabilities of the computer. This section describes briefly what these accessories and options are.
1.6.1 AC Adapter and Power Cord
The AC Adapter supplies external power to your computer and at the same time charges the internal battery pack. The AC adapter has an auto-switching design that can connect to any
100VAC ~ 240VAC power outlets. Connect the adapter to the AC wall outlet using the power cord. There is an LED on the AC adapter to indicate if DC power is already available.
1.6.2 Battery Pack
Aside from the AC adapter, your computer can also be powered through the removable battery pack. The battery pack uses rechargeable or Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) battery cells that can run for 2 hours when fully charged and power management enabled. Recharging the battery takes around 2 hours when the computer is off.
You should always leave the battery inside your computer even when using the AC adapter as it also acts as back-up power supply in case power from the AC adapter is cut off. It is also very important to have the battery pack always charged to prevent battery cell degradation. If the AC adapter is not connected or not available, and the notebook is not going to be used for some period, it is advisable to remove the battery pack from the notebook to prevent any current leak.
1.6.3 DVD-ROM Drive
Other than the internal CD-ROM drive, the notebook also provides optional factory built-in
DVD-ROM drive. DVD-ROM drives are also backward compatible with CD-ROM, so you can also use any audio CDs, video CDs, photo CDs, and CD-R. Using a software MPEG-
2/DVD program, the notebook can playback any commercial DVD movie titles.
1.6.4 CD-RW Drive
This device pack can write data to CD-R or CD-RW CD for you to backup the data.
1.6.5 CD-RW/DVD Combo Drive
This device pack can write data to CD-R or CD-RW CD for you to backup the data and also can read DVD/CD title.
