Setting up more than one display

You can set up your computer to utilize more than one display, effectively spreading a single desktop screen across two monitors.

The Display Properties window allows you to adjust more precisely the relative positioning of the two displays when they are configured as an extended desktop. On the Display Properties window, the two displays can be positioned horizontally, vertically or in any diagonal configuration you wish.

If an external display will not be connected next time you use your computer, you should cancel any extended desktop or clone display settings before shutting down your computer.

Clone display settings are those where more than one device has been selected and is simultaneously applicable.

Cleaning the computer

To help ensure long, trouble-free operation, keep the computer free of dust and use care with liquids around the computer.

Be careful not to spill liquids into the computer. If the computer does get wet, turn the power off immediately and let the computer dry completely before you turn it on again.

Clean the computer using a slightly damp (with water) cloth. You can use glass cleaner on the display. Spray a small amount of cleaner on a soft, clean cloth and wipe the screen gently with the cloth.

Never spray cleaner directly onto the computer or let liquid run into any part of it. Never use harsh or caustic chemical products to clean the computer.
