Cleaning your notebook
Keeping your notebook clean and the vents free
from dust helps keep your notebook performing
at its best. You may want to gather these items
and put together a notebook cleaning kit:
■
A soft, lint-free cloth
■
An aerosol can of air that has a narrow,
straw-like extension
■
Cotton swabs
■
A DVD drive cleaning kit
Cleaning the exterior
Warning
When you shut down
your notebook, the
power turns off, but
some electrical current
still flows through your
notebook. To avoid
possible injury from
electrical shock,
unplug the power
cord, modem cable,
and network cable
from the wall outlets.
Tips & Tricks
You may want to
occasionally open the
memory bay door and
remove dust and lint
using an aerosol can of
air.
Always turn off your notebook and other
peripherals before cleaning any components.
Also, remove the battery before cleaning any
components.
Use a damp, lint-free cloth to clean your
notebook and other parts of your system. Do not
use household abrasive or solvent cleaners
because they can damage the finish on
components.
Your notebook is cooled by air circulated
through the vents on the case, so keep the vents
free of dust. With your notebook 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. Do not attempt to clean
dust from the inside of your notebook.
