When traveling with the hard-disk drive removed from the computer, wrap the
drive in a nonconducting material, such as cloth or paper. If you have the drive
checked by hand, be ready to install the drive in the computer. You can put the
hard-disk drive through an X-ray security machine, but never put the drive through
a metal detector.
‡
When traveling, do not place the computer in overhead storage compartments
where it could slide around. Do not drop your computer or subject it to other
mechanical shocks.
‡
Protect your computer, battery, and hard-disk drive from environmental hazards
such as dirt, dust, food, liquids, temperature extremes, and overexposure to
sunlight.
‡
When you move your computer between environments with very different tem-
perature and/or humidity ranges, condensation may form on or within the
computer. To avoid damaging the computer, allow sufficient time for the moisture
to evaporate before using the computer.

When you disconnect a cable, pull on its connector or on its strain-relief loop, not

Handle components with care. Hold a component such as a memory module by
its edges, not its pins.

peripheral device from the computer, wait 5 seconds after turning off the com-
puter before removing the memory module or disconnecting the device to help
avoid possible damage to the system board.

cloth across the display in one direction, moving from the top of the display to the

clean cloth slightly dampened with water. Always turn off the computer before
cleaning the touch pad. To clean the touch pad, stroke the cloth gently across the

touch pad and the top cover of the computer.
