Introduction
Thank you for purchasing an Insignia universal laptop power
adapter. Your adapter plugs into any AC power outlet anywhere in
the world, and provides a reliable power source to run your laptop
computer and charge its internal battery. Insignia adapters are
made using the highest quality components and feature all of the
necessary voltage and heat protection circuits to ensure maximum
levels of safety and efficiency.
Your adapter comes with a variety of numbered tips that connect to
your adapter's output cable and control the output voltage. To make
sure that the correct voltage is delivered to your laptop, always
make sure that you're using the correct tip for your specific laptop
model. Read the following instructions and go to the Tip Wizard at
http://bbyurl.us/tipfinder to find the Tip Wizard to make sure that
you select the correct tip for your laptop.
Note: You may need a physical adapter plug to plug into some AC power
outlets outside of the United States, but you don’t need a voltage converter
anywhere in the world.
CAUTION: Your adapter is not compatible with Mac computers or laptops
requiring more than 90 watts of power.

Why doesn't the tip fit into my laptop?
If the tip does not fit into your laptop you may have selected the
incorrect tip for your laptop. The tip should fit snugly inside the DC
input jack on the side or back of your laptop. If the tip does not fit
into the jack, do not force the tip. Make sure that you have selected
the correct tip for your laptop by visiting the Tip Wizard at
http://bbyurl.us/tipfinder. If you need additional assistance please
contact Insignia customer service at [phone].
Will using an incorrect tip damage my laptop?
The tips are designed to be used with specific laptops. You should
only use the tip that is designated specifically for your laptop. You
can identify the correct tip using the Tip Wizard at
http://bbyurl.us/tipfinder.
Using 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. Using an
incorrect tip can damage your laptop.
My laptop is less than 90 watts (for example, 65 watts). Will my
adapter damage my laptop?
No, using your adapter will not damage your laptop. Your adapter
only supplies as much power as required by the laptop, up to a
maximum of 90 watts.
My laptop is more than 90 watts (for example, 120 watts). Will
my adapter damage my laptop?
Your adapter is a 90 watt adapter. You should NOT use it with
laptops that require more than 90 watts of power.
I notice that my adapter is warm when I use it. Is this a problem?
During standard operation, the adapter body may feel warm. This is
normal. You should always place your adapter in a ventilated area in
order to prevent over-heating.
If I leave my adapter plugged in when I'm not using it does it
waste energy?
Your Insignia adapter meets EnergyStar and CEC VI energy
requirements which means it is an energy-efficient product
designed to conserve power. When your adapter is plugged in and
not being used it draws less than 0.5W of power.
