Installing an optional security cable
NOTE: A security cable is designed to act as a deterrent, but it may not prevent the computer from
being mishandled or stolen.
NOTE: The security cable slot on your computer may look slightly different from the illustration in
this section. Refer to the Getting Started guide for the location of the security cable slot on your
computer.
1. Loop the security cable around a secured object.
2. Insert the key (1) into the cable lock (2).
3. Insert the cable lock into the security cable slot on the computer (3), and then lock the cable lock
with the key.
