Handling the Keyboard
Take care not to spill any liquid on the keyboard. If you do, turn off
your computer immediately.
✔
If you spill liquid that is thin and clear, unplug the keyboard,
turn it upside down to let the liquid drain out, and let it dry for
24 hours at room temperature. If, after you take these steps, the
keyboard doesn’t work, take it to a qualified service provider for
repair.
✔
If you spill liquid that is greasy, sweet, or sticky, unplug the key-
board and take it to a qualified service provider for repair.
Ejecting a Disk
For instructions on ejecting a floppy disk, a CD-ROM disc, or other
removable media, see the “Disks” topic of Macintosh Guide, available
in the Guide menu.
If you can’t eject a floppy disk, try in the following order:
✔
Hold down the Command and Shift keys and press the number l key
on your keyboard to eject a disk in the internal disk drive.
✔
Turn off the computer. If the disk isn’t ejected, then hold down the
button on your mouse or other pointing device while you turn the
SuperMac C500 computer on again.
✔
Locate the small hole near the disk drive’s opening, and carefully
insert the end of a large straightened paper clip into it. Push gen-
tly until the disk is ejected. Do not use excessive force.
