Moving your computer

Before moving your computer, take the following precautions:
1. Back up your data on the storage drive. See "Good maintenance practices" on page 50.
2. Remove any media from the drives and turn off all connected devices and the computer. Then,
disconnect all power cords from electrical outlets and disconnect all cables that are connected to the
computer.
3. If you saved the original shipping cartons and packing materials, use them to pack the units. If you are
using different cartons, cushion the units to avoid damage.
Moving your computer to another country or region
When you move your computer to another country or region, you must take local electrical standards into
consideration. If the local electrical outlet style is different from the type you are currently using, contact the
Lenovo Customer Support Center to purchase either an electrical plug adapter or a new power cord. For a
list of Lenovo Support phone numbers, go to http://www.lenovo.com/support/phone. If you cannot find the
support telephone number for your country or region, contact your Lenovo reseller.
