debris.
Cleaning the TouchPad and keyboard
WARNING! To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to internal components, do not use a
vacuum cleaner attachment to clean the keyboard. A vacuum cleaner can deposit household debris
on the keyboard surface.
CAUTION: When cleaning the TouchPad and keyboard, do not let liquids drip between the keys.
This can permanently damage internal components.

Traveling with the computer
For best results, follow these traveling and shipping tips:
●
Prepare the computer for traveling or shipping:
◦
Back up your information.
◦
Remove all discs and all external media cards, such as digital cards.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of damage to the computer, damage to a drive, or loss of
information, remove the media from a drive before removing the drive from a drive bay and
before shipping, storing, or traveling with a drive.
◦
Turn off and then disconnect all external devices.
◦ Shut down the computer.
●
Take along a backup of your information. Keep the backup separate on the computer.
●
When traveling by air, carry the computer as hand luggage; do not check it in with the rest of
your bags.
CAUTION: Avoid exposing a drive to magnetic fields. Security devices with magnetic fields
include airport walk-through devices and security wands. Airport conveyer belts and similar
security devices that check carry-on baggage use X-rays instead of magnetism and do not
damage drives.
●
In-flight computer use is at the discretion of the airline. If you plan to use the computer during a
flight, check with the airline in advance.
●
If the computer will be unused and disconnected from external power for more than 2 weeks,
remove the battery and store it separately.
