Introduction

Thank you for purchasing a Rocketfish Slimline Energy Efficient Laptop

AC Power Adapter with USB. This AC power 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.

NOTE: A physical adapter plug may be necessary to plug into some AC

power outlets outside of the United States, but no voltage converter is

needed anywhere in the world.

This adapter comes with a variety of numbered tips which connect to

the output cable of the adapter and control the output voltage. To

ensure that the proper voltage is delivered to your laptop, you must

always make sure that you are using the correct tip for your specific

laptop model. Read the following instructions and refer to the Tip

Compatibility Guide included with this adapter to make sure you select

the correct tip for your laptop. You can also go to the Tip Wizard at

www.rocketfishproducts.com for a complete listing of compatible

models.

This AC power adapter also has the charging convenience of a built-in

USB port. You can use this USB port to charge popular USB devices such

as cell phones, iPods, and even higher-power devices such as iPads,

tablet computers, and newer smartphones at the same time the adapter

powers and charges the laptop.

Rocketfish 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.

Energy Saving Feature

While traditional adapters constantly draw “vampire power” as long as

they remain plugged in, this energy efficient adapter automatically

shuts off this passive drain when the laptop cycles into “sleep” mode or

is shut off. When you are ready to use the laptop, simply begin typing or

touch the Smart Tip’s power switch to cycle back into full power mode.

CAUTION: This AC power adapter is not compatible with Mac computers.

Using the AC power adapter

To use the AC power adapter:

Compatibility Guide" (separate booklet), or go to

www.rocketfishproducts.com and go to RF-BSLAC or RF-BSLAC-CA

to find the Tip Wizard.

2Identify the correct tip number for your laptop model.

CAUTION: The use of an incorrect tip may damage your laptop. Do not

use this product if you cannot locate your laptop model in the Tip

Compatibility Guide included with this AC adapter or by using the Tip

Wizard at www.rocketfishproducts.com. If you still have questions,

contact our toll-free help line for assistance (800) 620-2790.

NOTE: If the compatible tip for your device is not included in the

adapter package, one free tip can be ordered through the Tip Wizard at

www.rocketfishproducts.com. Simply use the Tip Wizard to locate the

manufacturer and model and you can order your complementary tip.

If you are unable to locate your device on the Tip Wizard or need

assistance please contact Rocketfish customer service at

(800) 620-2790.

3Locate the specified tip from the tip bundle provided. Each tip is

clearly numbered.

4Connect the selected tip to the end of the output cable, making

sure that the pins on the tip are aligned with the holes in the cable.

The ridge on the inside of the tip should align with the groove in

the output cable connector. Make sure that the tip is pushed all the

way into the output cable's connector.

5Connect the AC power cord to the socket on the AC power adapter.

RF-BSLAC/RF-BSLAC-CA

6Plug the AC power cord into an AC power outlet or power strip.

7Plug the output cable into the DC input jack on the side or back of

your laptop. The LED on the Smart Tip lights, and the AC power

adapter powers the laptop and charges its battery.

Charging additional USB devices

The AC power adapter features a convenient 2.1 Amp USB port. This

port lets you charge any USB enabled device, such as a cell phone,

handheld game, music player, iPad or other tablet PC,

smartphone and more, while you use the AC adapter to power and

charge your laptop.

To charge additional USB devices:

1Plug a standard USB cable (not included) into the USB power port

on the end of the AC power adapter.

2Connect the other end of the USB cable to your device. For best

results, we recommend that you use the USB cable that came with

your device.

3Connect the AC power cord to the socket on the AC power adapter,

then plug the AC power cord into an AC power outlet or power

strip.

Using the energy savings feature

The AC power adapter automatically enters the power-saving mode

when the laptop is not in use and the battery is fully charged.

The AC power adapter “wakes up” periodically to determine if power is

needed and supplies power if the laptop is being used.

When you want to use your laptop, begin typing or touch the power

switch on the AC power adapter’s Smart Tip. The AC power adapter

resumes “active” mode and begins supplying power to your laptop.

NOTE: If you are using the USB port to charge or operate a smaller

device, disconnect the USB cable from the AC power adapter when

done. The AC power adapter will not enter the “sleep” mode if the USB

cable is connected to the adapter.

NOTE: If your laptop battery cannot hold a charge for more than a few

minutes or if you do not have a battery in your laptop, your “Standby”

or “Hybrid Sleep” (Vista only) modes may not function correctly. This is

because the standby power saving feature of your AC adapter turns on

when power is not needed. If you want to disable your adapter’s energy

saving feature, you can plug any USB cable into the USB port on the

adapter. You may also consider either replacing your laptop battery

with a new one or using the “Hibernate” or “shutdown” instead of

“Standby” or “Hybrid Sleep.”

FAQ

What tip should I use for my laptop?

You can determine the correct tip for your laptop by referencing the Tip

Compatibility Guide included with the adapter or by visiting the Tip

Wizard at www.rocketfishproducts.com. Locate your laptop

manufacturer and model and the correct tip will be listed.

If you cannot find your specific laptop model please contact Rocketfish

customer service at (800) 620-2790 for additional assistance.

My tip is not included, how do I order a new one?

First review the included Tip Compatibility Guide to locate the correct

tip for your specific laptop. You can also go to the Tip Wizard at

www.rocketfishproducts.com for a complete listing of compatible

models. If the compatible tip for your device is not included in the

adapter package, one free tip can be ordered through the Tip Wizard at

www.rocketfishproducts.com. Simply use the Tip Wizard to locate your

device manufacturer and model and you can order your complimentary

tip. If you are unable to locate your device in the Tip Wizard please

contact Rocketfish customer service at (800) 620-2790.

How do I connect the tip to the adapter cable?

Once you have selected the correct tip for your laptop, connect the tip

to the output cable, making sure that the ridge on the inside of the tip

aligns properly with the groove in the output cable connector.

Additionally, the pins on the inside of the tip should be in line with the

holes in the output cable. The tip should be pushed firmly onto the

cable until the tip and cable meet and there is no gap.

What other laptops can I use this adapter for?

The power adapter is compatible with thousands of laptop models. A

complete list of compatible laptops can be viewed through the Tip

Wizard at www.rocketfishproducts.com.

Why doesn't the tip fit into my laptop?

If the tip does not appear to fit into your laptop you may have selected

the incorrect tip for your device. The tip should fit snugly inside the DC

input jack on the side or back of your laptop. If the tip will not fit into

the jack do not force the tip. Confirm you have selected the correct tip

for your laptop by referencing the included Tip Compatibility Guide or

visiting the Tip Wizard at www.rocketfishproducts.com. If you need

additional assistance please contact Rocketfish customer service at

(800) 620-2790.

Will using an incorrect tip damage my laptop?

The tips are designed to be used with specific laptops and so you

should only use the tip that is designated specifically for your laptop.

The correct tip can be identified by using the online Tip Wizard at

www.rocketfishproducts.com or by locating your specific laptop in the

included Tip Compatibility Guide.

The use 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. It is also possible that

the use of an incorrect tip could damage your laptop. For these reasons,

it is necessary to use the tip designed specifically for your device.

My laptop is only 19 volts, but the AC power adapter label

says “DC OUTPUT: 15-20V.” Is this adapter safe to use with

my computer?

The 15-20V rating refers to the capability of the adapter. This means

that it can safely power laptops whose voltage is within this range.

I notice that the adapter is warm when I use it. Is this a

problem?

During standard operation the adapter body may feel warm, and this is

normal. The adapter should always be placed in a ventilated area in

order to prevent over-heating.
