Computer, Keyboard, and Monitor
CAUTION: Before you clean your computer, disconnect the computer from the
electrical outlet. Clean your computer with a soft cloth dampened with water. Do
not use liquid or aerosol cleaners, which may contain flammable substances.
• Use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment to gently remove dust from
the slots and holes on your computer and from between the keys on the
keyboard.
NOTICE: Do not wipe the display screen with a soap or alcohol solution. Doing so
may damage the antiglare coating.
• To clean your monitor screen, lightly dampen a soft, clean cloth with water.
If possible, use a special screen-cleaning tissue or solution suitable for the
monitor’s antistatic coating.
• Wipe the keyboard, computer, and plastic part of the monitor with a soft
cleaning cloth moistened with water.
Do not soak the cloth or let water drip inside your computer or keyboard.
