To prepare the computer for use in Europe, set the power supply to use 220V.
Key Takeaway - Electricity in most European plugs is 220V, as opposed to the American power grid, which uses 110V. All of this power is in Alternating Current (AC), and must be converted to DC for use in the computer. Providing the user with a power converter can also correct the problem, but it is unnecessary if you switch the red button behind the power supply to 220V.
