Cleaning your computer
Occasionally clean your computer as follows:
vUse a soft cloth moistened with nonalkaline detergent to wipe the exterior
of the computer.
vAvoidspraying cleaner directly on the display or the keyboard.
vGently wipe the display with a soft, dry cloth. If you see a scratchlike mark
on your display,it might be a stain transferred from the keyboard or the
TrackPointpointer when the cover was pressed from the outside. Wipe or
dust the stain gently with a soft, dry cloth. If the stain remains, moisten a
soft, lint-free cloth with water that does not contain impurities, wring out
as much of the water as you can, and then wipe the display again. Be sure
to dry the display before closing it.
