When Using Your Computer (continued)
•Clean the display with a soft, clean cloth and water. Apply the water to the cloth; then stroke the cloth across the display in one direction, moving from the top of the display to the bottom. Remove moisture from the display quickly and keep the display dry. Long- term exposure to moisture can damage the display. Do not use a commercial window cleaner to clean your display.
•If your computer gets wet or is damaged, follow the procedures described in "Solving Problems" on page 90 or 91. If, after following these procedures, you confirm that your computer is not operating properly, contact Dell (see "Contacting Dell" on page 124 for the appropriate contact information).

NOTICE: The only time you should ever access the inside of your computer is when you are installing memory modules, a Mini PCI card, or a modem.
NOTICE: Wait 5 seconds after turning off the computer before disconnecting a device or removing a memory module, Mini PCI card, or modem to help prevent possible damage to the system board.
1Shut down your computer and turn off any attached devices.
