Taking the computer home
When you move between your office and home you will need to prepare your
computer for the short trip.
Preparing the computer
After disconnecting your computer from the desktop (see "Disconnecting from the
desktop"), prepare the unit as follows:
1
Remove all media from the drives. Loaded media can damage the drive heads
during transit.
2
Pack the computer in a protective case that is padded to guard against knocks.
Make sure that the unit cannot slide around inside the case.
Caution: avoid packing items next to the top of the computer, as this could result
in damage to the screen.
What to bring with you
If you don't have spare items at home, it is advisable to take along the AC adapter and
this User's Guide.
Special considerations
To protect your computer in transit, it is advisable to pay attention to the following:
•
Minimize the effect of temperature changes. Keep your computer with you
instead of placing it in storage holds.
•
Avoid leaving your computer in a hot car.
•
Changes in temperature and humidity can cause condensation to form in your
computer. Before turning the computer on, allow it to return to room
temperature, and then check the screen for signs of condensation. If the
temperature change is greater than 10°C (18°F), allow the computer to come to
room temperature slowly by placing it in a room with a temperature between the
outside and room temperatures.
