Computer Operating Guidelines, Routine Care and Shipping Preparation
■Install or enable power management functions of the operating system or other software, including sleep states.
■Turn off the computer before you do either of the following:
❏Wipe the exterior of the computer with a soft, damp cloth as needed. Using cleaning products may discolor or damage the finish.
❏Occasionally clean the air vents on all vented sides of the computer. Lint, dust, and other foreign matter can block the vents and limit the airflow.
Optical Drive Precautions
Be sure to observe the following guidelines while operating or cleaning the optical drive.
Operation
■Do not move the drive during operation. This may cause it to malfunction during reading.
■Avoid exposing the drive to sudden changes in temperature, as condensation may form inside the unit. If the temperature suddenly changes while the drive is on, wait at least one hour before you turn off the power. If you operate the unit immediately, it may malfunction while reading.
■Avoid placing the drive in a location that is subject to high humidity, extreme temperatures, mechanical vibration, or direct sunlight.
Cleaning
■Clean the panel and controls with a soft, dry cloth or a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Never spray cleaning fluids directly on the unit.
■Avoid using any type of solvent, such as alcohol or benzene, which may damage the finish.
