Cleaning your computer
Keeping your computer clean and the vents free from dust helps keep your computer performing
at its best. You may want to gather these items and put together a computer cleaning kit:
•
A soft, lint-free cloth
•
An aerosol can of air that has a narrow, straw-like extension
•
Cotton swabs
•
An optical disc drive cleaning kit
Cleaning the exterior
•
Always turn off your computer and other peripheral devices before cleaning any
components.
•
Use a damp, lint-free cloth to clean your computer and other parts of your system. Do
not use household abrasive or solvent cleaners because they can damage the finish on
components.
•
Your computer is cooled by air circulated through the vents on the case, so keep the vents
free of dust. With your computer turned off and unplugged, brush the dust away from
the vents with a damp cloth. Be careful not to drip any water into the vents.
Cleaning the keyboard
You should occasionally clean the keyboard to remove dust and lint trapped under the keys.
To clean the keyboard:
1
Use an aerosol can of air with a narrow, straw-like extension to remove dust and lint
trapped under the keys.
2
If you spill liquid on the keyboard, turn off your computer and turn the keyboard upside
down. Let the liquid drain, then let the keyboard dry before trying to use it again. If the
keyboard does not work after it dries, you may need to replace it.
Cleaning the monitor
To clean the monitor:
•
To clean an LCD flat panel monitor, use a soft cloth and water to clean the screen. Dampen
the cloth (never apply liquid directly to the screen), then wipe the screen with the cloth.
•
To clean a CRT monitor, use a soft cloth and glass cleaner to clean the monitor screen.
Squirt a little cleaner on the cloth (never directly on the screen), then wipe the screen with
the cloth.
Warning
When you shut down your computer, the power turns off, but some
electrical current still flows through it. To avoid possible injury from electrical
shock, unplug the power cord, modem cable, and network cable from the wall
outlets.
Caution
A flat-panel display is made of specially coated glass and can be
scratched or damaged by abrasive or ammonia-based glass cleaners.
