Unplug the power cord (by pulling the plug, not the cord) and disconnect the ethernet cable or phone cord if any of the following conditions exist:

ÂYou want to add memory

ÂThe power cord or plug becomes frayed or otherwise damaged

ÂYou spill something into the case

ÂYour iMac is exposed to rain or excess moisture

ÂYour iMac has been dropped or the case has been damaged

ÂYou suspect that your iMac needs service or repair

ÂYou want to clean the case (use only the recommended procedure described later)

Important: The only way to turn off power completely is to unplug the power cord. Make sure at least one end of the power cord is within easy reach so that you can unplug your iMac when you need to.

WARNING: Your AC cord has a three-wire grounding plug (a plug that has a third, grounding pin). This plug fits only a grounded AC outlet. If you are unable to insert the plug into an outlet because the outlet isn’t grounded, contact a licensed electrician to replace the outlet with a properly grounded outlet. Do not defeat the purpose of the grounding plug.
