CHAPTER 5 : Maintaining Your Computer
54
Setting up a maintenance
schedule
Use the following table to set up a regular maintenance
schedule.
Caring for your computer
To extend the life of your computer:
•
Be careful not to bump or drop your computer, and do
not put any objects on top of it. The case, although
strong, is not made to support extra weight.
•
When transporting your computer, we recommend that
you put it in the original packaging materials.
•
Keep your computer away from magnetic fields.
Magnetic fields can erase data on hard drives.
•
Never turn off your computer when the drive indicator
is on because data on the hard drive could be lost or
corrupted.
