Traveling with your notebook
Follow these tips when you are traveling locally with your notebook.
Preparing your notebook
Prepare your notebook as if you were taking it home. Be sure the battery in
your notebook is charged. Airport security may require you to turn on your
notebook when bringing it into the gate area.
What to bring with you
Bring the following items with you:
■ AC adapter
■ Spare, fully charged batteries
■ Additional printer driver files if you plan to use another printer
Special considerations
In addition to the guidelines for taking your notebook home, follow these
guidelines to protect your notebook while traveling:
■ Always take your notebook as carry-on luggage.
■ If possible, have your notebook inspected by hand. Your notebook can
safely pass through security X-ray machines, but never expose your
notebook to a metal detector.
■ Avoid exposing diskettes to hand-held metal detectors.
