Travel and Shipping Tips for Traveling with Your Notebook ■ Take a backup of your work with you. Keep the backup separate from the notebook. ■ When traveling by air, carry your notebook as hand baggage. Do not check it in with the rest of your luggage. ■ Do not expose the notebook or diskettes to a magnetic security detector. ❏ The security device that examines carry-on items placed on a conveyor belt uses x-rays and is safe for the notebook and diskettes. ❏ The walk-through security device and the handheld security wands are magnetic and may damage the notebook or diskettes. ■ If you plan to use the notebook during a flight, check with the airline in advance. In-flight notebook use is at the discretion of the airline. ■ If your notebook has a GSM device, such as the GPRS Multiport Module, you must turn off the GSM device on your notebook before boarding and keep it turned off if you plan to use your notebook during the flight. ■ If you are traveling internationally: ❏ Consult with a Customer Care Center about power cord and adapter requirements for each location in which you plan to use the notebook. (Voltage, frequency, and plug configurations vary.) Refer to the Worldwide Telephone Numbers booklet (English only) to contact Customer Care for help and support. Ä To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or damage to the equipment, do not attempt to power the notebook with a voltage converter kit sold for appliances. ❏ Check the computer-related customs regulations for each country on your itinerary. 16-2 Hardware and Software Guide
