# Notes on Using the Power Source

Read the following precautions before plugging your VAIO computer into an AC power source.

- If you remove the battery pack while your VAIO computer is turned on or in Sleep mode but it is disconnected from an AC power source, you will lose all unsaved data.

- If you do not intend to use your VAIO computer for an extended period of time while it is disconnected from an AC power source, place the computer into Hibernate mode or turn it off.

## Notes on the AC adapter

- Use the AC adapter supplied with your VAIO computer or genuine Sony products. Do not use any other AC adapter as it may cause a malfunction.

- Do not connect the AC adapter to a power conversion device such as a travel power converter. It may cause overheating or a malfunction.

- If the AC adapter cable becomes damaged or broken, do not use it.

## ﻿Notes on turning on your VAIO computer

- Because your VAIO computer contains magnetic components, keep magnetic storage media, such as floppy disks, away from the computer, as it may cause data corruption.

- Your VAIO computer falsely recognizes that the LCD screen lid is closed when you move magnetic devices closer to the computer and therefore will automatically enter Sleep mode (with the default settings). Keep magnetic devices away from the computer.
