Ensure that the laptop is not connected to the E-Port (docked).

Turn on the laptop.

Verify that your laptop operating system has completed the setup process.

Verify that your battery is installed before docking your laptop.

10 Using the Dell™ E-Port

Docking Your Laptop

The E-Port can run on its AC power adapter, the laptop’s AC power or the

laptop’s battery. You can use the AC adapter to power the E-Port and the

laptop, which charges the battery.‘

NOTICE: Always use the Dell AC adapter that came with the E-Port. If you use any

other commercially available AC adapter, you may damage the E-Port or the laptop.

Complete the steps in "Before You Dock for the First Time" on page 9.

Place the E-Port so that there is enough flat space in front of it to

completely support the laptop when docked to the E-Port.
