Connect your Chromebox to ac power
CAUTION:

• To ensure proper functionality and compatibility, you need to use the ac power adapter that is provided with the product, or use a display device with a minimum power output of 45 watts as the ac power source for your Chromebox.
• Your Chromebox can only use one ac power adapter or USB Type-C display device as its power source at the same time. If it has two suitable USB Type-C connections, the first connected power adapter or display device serves as the power source. If this power adapter or device is disconnected, your Chromebox will shut down immediately.

Use the included ac power adapter (for selected models)

• Step 1. Connect the power cord to the ac power adapter.
• Step 2. Plug the power adapter into either multi-purpose USB Type-C connector on your Chromebox. Step 3. Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet.

• The first time you turn on your Chromebox, you must connect to ac power and then press the power button.
• If your Chromebox did not come with an ac power adapter, you may use a display device as its ac power source.

Use a display device as the power source
If your Chromebox did not come with an ac power adapter, you need to use a display device as its power source. In that case, ensure that your display device can serve as its power source and prepare an appropriate USB cable.

• For the connection procedure, refer to “Connect a display device” on page 8.
