Preparing the computer

Prepare the computer as you would normally prepare it for traveling.

What to take with you

Take the following items with you:

AC adapter

Power cords that are appropriate for the country to which you
are traveling

Spare, fully-charged battery packs

Additional printer driver files if you plan to use another printer

Proof of purchase, in case you need to show it to customs officials

International Travelers Warranty passport

Special considerations

Follow the same special considerations as when traveling with the computer.
In addition, these tips are useful when traveling internationally:

When traveling in another country, check that the local AC voltage and the AC
adapter power cord specifications are compatible. If not, purchase a power
cord that is compatible with the local AC voltage. Do not use converter kits sold
for appliances to power the computer.

If you are using the modem, check if the modem and connector are compatible
with the telecommunications system of the country you are traveling in.

Securing your computer

Your computer is a valuable investment that you need to take care of. Learn how to
protect and take care of your computer.
Security features include hardware and software locks — a security notch
and passwords.

Using a computer security lock

The notebook comes with a Kensington-compatible security slot for a security lock.

Wrap a computer security lock cable around an immovable object such as a table or
handle of a locked drawer. Insert the lock into the notch and turn the key to secure
the lock. Some keyless models are also available.
