Cleaning the Keyboard/Mouse

Make sure that the server and peripheral devices are all off-powered (the POWER/SLEEP LED goes off), and then wipe the keyboard surface with a dry cloth.

The mouse operation depends on the degree of smoothness of the internal ball rotation. To keep the mouse ball clean, use the mouse in a place with little dust. Follow the steps below to clean the mouse regularly:

1.Prepare cold or lukewarm water, neutral detergent, alcohol, two dry soft clothes, and cotton swabs.

2.Make sure that the server is off-powered (the POWER/SLEEP LED goes off).

3.Turn the mouse upside down, and rotate the mouse ball cover counterclockwise to remove it.

4.Take out the ball from the mouse. Cover the bottom of the mouse with your hand, and turn your hand holding the mouse (the mouse is on your palm with the button upward). The mouse ball is released onto your palm.
