Traveling with your computer - 65
If the meeting room does not have an electrical outlet, reduce the drain on
the battery by putting the computer in Sleep mode. Press <Fn> + <F4> or
close the display cover whenever you are not actively using the computer.
Taking the computer home

Preparing the computer
After disconnecting the computer from your desktop, follow these steps to
prepare the computer for the trip home:
• Check that you have removed all media and compact discs from the
drive(s). Failure to remove the media can damage the drive head.
• Pack the computer in a protective case that can prevent the computer
from sliding around and cushion it if it should fall.
Caution: Avoid packing items next to the top cover of the
computer. Pressure against the top cover can damage the
screen.
What to take with you
Unless you have some items at home, take the following items with you:
• AC adapter and power cord.
• The printed Setup Guide.
