Moving the computer

Before moving your computer, even across the room, make
sure all disk activity has ended (the drive indicator light stops
glowing) and all external peripheral cables are disconnected.
Never press the eject button while the computer is accessing the
drive. Wait for the disk/disc activity light on the system indicator
panel to turn off before opening the disc tray.
If the disc is spinning when you open the disc tray, wait for the disc
to stop before removing it.
Never use a pencil to press the manual eject button. Pencil lead can
break off inside the computer and damage it.
Do not pick up the computer by its display panel or by the back
(where the ports are located). Doing so could damage the system.
