Preparing the Tablet PC for
Shipping or Travel
1. Back up your work.
2. Remove a PC Card or CompactFlash card.
3. Undock the tablet PC from an optional docking station and
turn off, then disconnect all optional external devices such as
headphones or an External MultiBay. (It is not necessary to
detach the tablet PC from an optional tablet PC keyboard.)
4. Shut down the tablet PC.
5. If the tablet PC will be disconnected from an external power
source for more than one month, shut down the tablet PC,
remove the battery pack, and store the battery pack in a cool,
dry place.
6. If you are shipping the tablet PC, insert it into a portfolio,
place it in the original packing box or similar protective
packaging, and label the package "FRAGILE."

Carry the tablet PC with you. Do not check it with
your luggage.

If you are traveling to an area where battery packs or AAAA
batteries for the pen may be unavailable, you may want to
take along a spare battery pack and AAAA battery.
