12. Drain liquid from laptop
It is strongly recommended to drain liquid from the laptop
every time
you plan to take the laptop away
from its current place of operation.
Please follow these instructions:
1.
Shutdown the laptop or set to hibernate before disconnecting the
tubes from your laptop. See Page 11 for details. With the water ports
open, make sure the laptop is clean and dry before proceeding.
2.
Push the dual head drainage adapter with its transparent tubes over
the water ports of the laptop and have them fully inserted, about
4
mm deep.
3.
Carefully lift the laptop and tilt it backwards, with the rear of the
laptop at the lowest point, aiming the drainage adapter towards a
small container or tissue paper. Slowly swerve left and right in order
to release all liquid.
4.
To remove the last few drops of liquid, put the laptop back into the
horiz
ontal position on your table and place the tip of the bulb pump
(see delivery contents) on one of the water ports, then gently
squeeze it to blow
air through the water pipe. Drops of liquid will
come out of the
opposite
water port – catch them with a tissue
paper.
5.
Inspect the area around the water ports of the laptop for remaining
liquid droplets.
Remove all fluids, keep all surfaces clean and dry.
6.
Now close the rubber seal of the laptop. Inspect the area again and
clear off all remaining fluids. Make sure the rubber seal is fully
closed and all surfaces are clean and dry.
Keep laptop horizontal
. Attach
tubes of drainage adapter
before you start draining.
