Packing Your System
If you are moving the system a short distance (for example, from one room to another in
the same building), you do not have to pack it. However, if you are shipping the system or
moving it by vehicle, pack it in the original packing material and containers. If you did not
save the boxes and packing material, use a sturdy carton and cushion the computer well to
avoid damage.
Installing Your System at a New Location
After moving the system to a new location, unpack and install it following the installation
instructions on the installation information.
