TAG 200 manual When Traveling

When Traveling

Before traveling with your computer, make a backup of your hard disk data into floppy disks or other storage devices. As an added precaution, bring along an extra copy of your important data.

Make sure the battery pack is fully charged.

Make sure the computer is turned off.

Do not leave objects that will press onto the display.

Disconnect the AC adapter from the computer and take it with you. Use the AC adapter as the power source and as a battery-charger.

Hand-carry the computer. Do not check it in as luggage.

Allow extra time for airport security. Many airports inspect electronic devices carefully.

If you need to leave the computer in the car, put it in the trunk of the car to avoid exposing the computer to excessive heat.

When going through airport security, it is recommended that you send the computer and floppy disks through the X-ray machine (the device you set your bags on). Avoid the magnetic detector (the device you walk through) or the magnetic wand (the hand-held device used by security personnel).

If you plan to travel abroad with your computer, consult your dealer for the appropriate AC power cord for use in your country of destination.
