Operating System

Operating Temperature

Due to the high performance of Thunderbolt technology,

Thunderbolt products sometimes generate more heat than

traditional hardware. Therefore, it’s normal for the docking

station to warm up when in use. As such, it’s recommended that

you don’t place your laptop on the docking station’s surface, as

doing so will result in even higher temperatures.

These higher temperatures do not present a safety hazard to

users or to hardware.

Installation

Powering the Docking Station

1. Select the appropriate regional Power Cord and connect it

to the Universal Power Adapter.

2. Connect the Universal Power Adapter to the DC 20V Port

on the Docking Station and to an AC Electrical Outlet.
