• Before moving your computer, be sure to remove any media, turn off
attached devices, and disconnect cords and cables.

up or hold your computer by the display.
• Use a quality carrying case that provides adequate cushion and protection.
Do not pack your computer in a tightly packed suitcase or bag.

being insolated.
