Additionally, the pins on the inside of the tip should be in line with the holes in the output cable. The tip should be pushed firmly onto the cable until the tip and cable meet and there is no gap.

Will using an incorrect tip damage my laptop?

The tips are designed to be used with specific laptops and so you should only use the tip that is designated specifically for your laptop. The correct tip can be identified by using the online Tip Wizard at http://bbyurl.us/ tipfinder.

The use of an incorrect tip may cause performance issues, including the inability to charge the internal battery or power the laptop, or the display of an error message on the laptop screen. It is also possible that the use of an incorrect tip could damage your laptop. For these reasons, it is necessary to use the tip designed specifically for your laptop.

My laptop uses less than 65 watts (e.g. 40 watts). Will this charger damage my laptop?

No, using this charger will not damage your laptop. This charger only supplies as much power as required by the laptop, up to a maximum of 65 watts.

My laptop uses more than 65 watts (e.g. 90 watts). Will this charger damage my laptop?

This is a 65 watt charger and it should not be used with any computer that requires more than 65 watts. Using with a computer that uses more than

65 watts can damage your charger.

I notice that the charger is warm when I use it. Is this a problem?

During standard operation the charger body may feel warm, and this is normal. The charger should always be placed in a ventilated area in order to prevent over-heating.

If I leave the charger plugged in when I'm not using it does it waste energy?

This Insignia charger meets CEC VI energy requirements which means it is an energy-efficient product designed to conserve power. When the charger is plugged in and not being used it draws less than 0.5 watts of power.

Conformément à la réglementation d'Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne d'un type et d'un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour l'émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à l'intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d'antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente

(p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l'intensité nécessaire à l'établissement d'une communication satisfaisante.

2. This equipment complies with IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator and your body.
