Backing Up Your Files

To protect your data, it is a good idea to back up your files

regularly. You should also make backup copies of any diskettes

you have that contain programs (your system may have come

with a utility installed on the hard disk drive to do this for you)

and store the copies away from your originals.

You can use any backup program or the backup utility in your
operating system. Read the online help or the software
documentation for instructions.

Using Energy Wisely

By purchasing this low-power, Energy Star

compliant computer, you join a growing number

of users concerned about conserving energy. Here are a few

additional tips you can use to be even more energy-wise:

If your printer and monitor aren’t Energy Star compliant,

turn them off when you’re not using them.

Use the print preview option on your software before you
print something. You’ll be able to catch formatting errors
before you commit them to paper.

If you have an electronic mail system available to you, send
E-mail rather than memos. Not only is this faster, but you’ll

save paper and storage space too.

Use recycled paper whenever you can and, if possible,
reuse or recycle used paper instead ofthrowing it away.
