International repair and service

Apple’s global limited warranty covers your Apple products for one year,
regardless of where the products were purchased. The Apple-authorized
service providers in more than 80 countries can handle most repairs (unless
the repair involves a component specific to another area of the world). Take a
copy of your proof of purchase with you.

Because of variations in environment and power supplies, Apple is not
responsible for damage to Apple products used outside the United States.

Storing the Macintosh PowerBook

1

Save your work on a hard disk or floppy disks.

2

Press the Power key and click Shut Down, or 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 –25°C and 60°C (between
–13°F and 140°F). Avoid leaving the computer where temperatures may be
extreme or unpredictable—in the trunk of a car, for example.

Service and support

If your computer is malfunctioning but does not appear to be physically
damaged, shut it down (and leave the power adapter plugged in, if possible)
until you can get help.

If you know or suspect that your computer is physically damaged, disconnect
the power adapter, remove the battery, and do not use the computer until it
can be repaired.

See the service and support information that came with your computer for
information about customer assistance.
