Securing your computer

To deter theft of your computer and the components inside it, you can
purchase a locking cable and attach it to your computer. The back panel has a
built-in port for a locking cable, and the computer cover has a lockable latch
that prevents the computer from being opened.

Follow the instructions supplied with the locking cable to secure it to your
computer. When you install the locking cable, be sure to thread the cable
through the lockable latch on the cover; this locks the computer cover and
prevents memory, disk drives, and expansion cards from being removed.

When the lockable cover latch is pulled out,
the computer’s cover can not be removed.

You can pass a security cable or padlock
through this opening in the cover latch to
keep it in its locked position.

Security lock port
(Your computer products retailer has security lock
devices that will fit this port, and which can secure
your computer to your workspace.)
