Caring for your computer
To extend the life of your computer:
■
When transporting your computer, we recommend that you put it in the original
packaging materials.
■
Keep diskettes and your computer away from magnetic fields. Magnetic fields can erase
data on both diskettes and hard drives.
■
Avoid subjecting your computer to extreme temperature changes.
■
Keep all liquids away from your computer. When spilled onto computer components,
almost any liquid can result in extremely expensive repairs that are not covered under
your warranty.
■
Avoid dusty or dirty work environments. Dust and dirt can clog the internal
mechanisms.
■
Do not block the ventilation fan.
■
When storing your computer for an extended period of time, unplug AC power.
