Operating Basics

Moving the computer

The computer is designed for rugged durability. However, a few simple precautions taken when moving the computer will help ensure trouble-free operation.

Make sure all disk activity has ended before moving the computer. Check the Built-in HDD and Optical Media drive indicators on the computer.

If a diskette is in the diskette drive, remove it.

If a disc is in the optical media drive, remove it. Also make sure the optical media drive drawer is securely closed.

Turn off the power to the computer.

Disconnect all peripherals before moving the computer.

Close the display. Do not pick up the computer by its display panel or back (where the interface ports are located).

Close all port covers.

Disconnect the AC adaptor if it is connected.

Use the carrying case when transporting the computer.
