Tips for Traveling with Your Tablet PC
■ Take along a backup of your work. Keep the backup separate
from the tablet PC.
■ When traveling by air, carry your tablet PC as hand baggage.
Do not check it in with the rest of your luggage.
■ Do not expose the tablet PC or diskettes to a magnetic
security detector.
❏ The security device that examines carry-on items placed
on a conveyor belt uses x-rays and is safe for the tablet PC
and diskettes.
❏ The walk-through security device and the handheld
security wands are magnetic and may damage the
tablet
PC or diskettes.
■ If you plan to use the tablet PC during a flight, check with
the
airline in advance. In-flight tablet PC use is at the
discretion of the airline.
■ If your tablet PC has a GSM device, such as the GPRS
Multiport Module, you must turn off the GSM device on
your
tablet PC before boarding and keep it turned off if you
plan to use your tablet PC during the flight.
■ If you are traveling internationally:
❏ Consult with Customer Care about power cord and
adapter requirements for each location in which you plan
to use the tablet PC. (Voltage, frequency, and plug
configurations vary.) Refer to the Worldwide Telephone
Numbers booklet (English only) to contact Customer Care
for help and support.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or damage to the
equipment, do not attempt to power the tablet PC with a voltage
converter kit sold for appliances.
❏ Check the computer-related customs regulations for each
country on your itinerary.
