Taking the computer home

When you are moving from your office to your home or vice versa.

Preparing the computer

After disconnecting the computer from your desktop, follow these steps to
prepare the computer for the trip home:
• Check that you have removed all media and compact discs from the
drive(s). Failure to remove the media can damage the drive head.
• Pack the computer in a protective case that can prevent the computer
from sliding around and cushion it if it should fall.
Caution: Avoid packing items next to the top cover of the
computer. Pressure against the top cover can damage the
screen.

What to take with you

Unless you have some items at home, take the following items with you:
• AC adapter and power cord.
• The printed setup poster.

Special considerations

Follow these guidelines to protect your computer while traveling to and
from work:
• Minimize the effects of temperature changes by keeping the computer
with you.
