• Anchor the other end of the lock cable to a solid immovable object, such as a desk leg or a fixed anchor in your workspace. Loop or wrap the cable as needed to create a secure tether between your device and the anchor point.
• Remove the key and store it in a safe place separate from your laptop. Gently tug the device to confirm the lock is secure. If movement is detected, recheck alignment, seating, and anchor stability to ensure maximum protection.
• Periodically inspect the lock head and cable for wear and tear. Clean the mechanism with a dry cloth and avoid exposure to liquids or solvents that could degrade the finish or mechanism.
