Storing the PowerBook

1Save your work on a hard disk or floppy disks.

2Choose Shut Down from the Special menu.

3Close the display.

4Recharge the battery.

Be sure your battery is fully charged if you are taking the computer places where you cannot plug it in.

5Store the computer in a cool, dry place.

Storage temperatures should remain between 10°C and 40°C (between 50°F and 104°F). Avoid leaving the computer where temperatures may be extreme or unpredictable—in the trunk of a car, for example.

Service and support

If your computer is malfunctioning but does not appear to be physically damaged, shut it down (and leave the power adapter plugged in, if possible) until you can get help.

If you know or suspect that your computer is physically damaged, disconnect the power adapter, remove the battery, and do not use the computer until it can be repaired.

See the service and support information that came with your computer for information about customer assistance.
