When Traveling
Before traveling with your computer, make a backup of your hard
disk data into floppy disks or other storage devices. As an added
precaution, bring along an extra copy of your important data.
Make sure the battery pack is fully charged.
Make sure the computer is turned off and the top cover is securely
closed.
Do not leave objects that will press onto the display.
Disconnect the AC adapter from the computer and take it with you.
Use the AC adapter as the power source and as a battery-charger.
Hand-carry the computer. Do not check it in as luggage.
If you need to leave the computer in the car, put it in the trunk of the
car to avoid exposing the computer to excessive heat.
Allow extra time for airport security. Many airports inspect electronic
devices carefully.
When going through airport security, it is recommended that you send
the computer and floppy disks through the X-ray machine (the device
you set your bags on). Avoid the magnetic detector (the device you
walk through) or the magnetic wand (the hand-held device used by
security personnel).
If you plan to travel abroad with your computer, consult your dealer
for the appropriate AC power cord for use in your country of
destination.
