Storing the PowerBook
1. Save your work onto a hard disk or floppy disks.
2. Choose Shut Down from the Special menu.
3. Close the display.
4. Store the computer in a cool, dry place.
Storage temperatures should remain between 10° C/50° F and
40° C/104° F. Avoid leaving the computer where temperatures
may be extreme or unpredictable—in the trunk of a car, for
example.
You can store the computer with or without its battery. If you’re
planning to store the computer for longer than a month, plug in
the power adapter or remove the battery.
