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:

ÂÂ You want to add memory

ÂÂ The power cord or plug becomes frayed or otherwise damaged ÂÂ You spill something into the case

ÂÂ Your iMac is exposed to rain or excess moisture

ÂÂ Your iMac has been dropped or the case has been damaged ÂÂ You suspect that your iMac needs service or repair

ÂÂ You want to clean the case (use only the recommended procedure described on page 71)

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.
