Transportation Precautions

To prepare your Eee PC for transport, you should turn it OFF and 

disconnect all external peripherals to prevent damage to the 
connectors

. The hard disk drive’s head retracts when the power is turned 

OFF to prevent scratching of the hard disk surface during transport.

 

Therefore, you should not transport your Eee PC while the power 
is still ON.

 Close the display panel to protect the keyboard and display 

panel. 

The Eee PC’s surface is easily dulled if not properly cared for. Be careful 
not to rub or scrape surfaces when transporting your Eee PC. You can put 
your Eee PC in a carrying case for protection from dirt, water, shock, and 
scratches.

Incorrect installation of 
battery may cause explosion 
and damage the Eee PC.

DO NOT carry or cover a 
Eee PC that is powered ON 
with any materials that will 
reduce air circulation such 
as a carrying bag.
