Tip

Foam swabs or cosmetic applicators are preferred to cotton swabs because cotton can add rather than remove lint.

Tip

Give your Presario Notebook a safe home. If your Notebook is consistently exposed to direct sunlight, consider moving it. The heat from the sun shining on the display screen can reduce its performance and cause glare.

Warning

Always disconnect the power from your Notebook and disconnect any other peripherals before attempting to clean your Notebook or any of its components.

Cleaning the Display Screen

The surface of your display screen may look fuzzy or smudged. You can use a soft, damp, lint-free cloth to wipe the screen clean.

If the display screen requires any additional cleaning, use an antistatic screen cleaner or pre-moistened antistatic wipes.

€Caution: Never spray water or any other cleaning fluids or chemicals directly on the screen. You may permanently damage your Notebook.

Cleaning the TouchPad

Grease and dirt on the TouchPad can cause your cursor to jump around on the display screen. To avoid this, periodically clean the TouchPad with a damp cloth. Remember, before using your Notebook, always wash your hands if they are dirty.
