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

Be sure your computer is in sleep or hibernation mode, or turned off, before moving it. This will prevent damage to the hard disk drive and data loss.

Ensure that the battery is full.

Be sure to turn off the power and close the LCD well.

When you leave the computer in your car, place it on the back seat to avoid being insolated.

Carry the AC adapter and power cord with the computer.

„Handle storage media and drives properly

If your computer comes with an optical drive, do not touch the surface of a disc or the lens on the tray.

Wait until you hear the CD or DVD click into the center pivot of an optical drive before closing the tray.

When installing your hard disk, follow the instructions shipped with your hardware, and apply pressure only where needed on the device.
