Turn off the computer before you do either of the following:
❏
Wipe the exterior of the computer with a soft, damp cloth as
needed. Using cleaning products may discolor or damage the
finish.
❏
Occasionally clean the air vents on the front and back of the
computer. Lint and other foreign matter can block the vents
and limit the airflow.
CD-ROM Drive Precautions
Be sure to observe the following guidelines while operating or cleaning
your CD-ROM drive.
Operation
■
Do not move the drive during operation. This may cause it to
malfunction during reading.
■
Avoid exposing the drive to sudden changes in temperature, as
condensation may form inside the unit. If the temperature suddenly
changes while the drive is on, wait at least one hour before you
turn off the power. If you operate the unit immediately, it may
malfunction while reading.
■
Avoid placing the drive in a location that is subject to high
humidity, extreme temperatures, mechanical vibration, or direct
sunlight.
Cleaning
■
Clean the panel and controls with a soft, dry cloth or a soft cloth
lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Never spray
cleaning fluids directly on the unit.
■
Avoid using any type of solvent, such as alcohol or benzene,
which may damage the finish.
Safety
If any object or liquid falls into the drive, immediately unplug the
computer and have it checked by an authorized Compaq service
provider.
