Routine care
General cleaning safety precautions
1. Never use solvents or flammable solutions to clean the computer.

the cloth on the component.
3. Always unplug the computer when cleaning with liquids or damp cloths.

Cleaning the Computer Case
Follow all safety precautions in General cleaning safety precautions on page 20 before cleaning the
computer.
To clean the computer case, follow the procedures described below:
●
To remove light stains or dirt, use plain water with a clean, lint-free cloth or swab.
●
For stronger stains, use a mild dishwashing liquid diluted with water. Rinse well by wiping it with a cloth
or swab dampened with clear water.
●
For stubborn stains, use isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol. No rinsing is needed as the alcohol will evaporate
quickly and not leave a residue.
●
After cleaning, always wipe the unit with a clean, lint-free cloth.
●
Occasionally clean the air vents on the computer. Lint and other foreign matter can block the vents and
limit the airflow.
Cleaning the keyboard
Follow all safety precautions in General cleaning safety precautions on page 20 before cleaning the
keyboard.
To clean the tops of the keys or the keyboard body, follow the procedures described in
Cleaning the
Computer Case on page 20.
When cleaning debris from under the keys, review all rules in
General cleaning safety precautions on page 20
before following these procedures:
CAUTION: Use safety glasses equipped with side shields before attempting to clean debris from under the
keys.
●
Visible debris underneath or between the keys may be removed by vacuuming or shaking.
●
Canned, pressurized air may be used to clean debris from under the keys. Caution should be used as too
much air pressure can dislodge lubricants applied under the wide keys.
