Operating Basics

Cleaning the computer

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

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 - in these circumstance you should get the computer inspected by an authorized service provider in order to assess the scope of any damage.

Clean the plastics of the computer using a slightly water dampened cloth.

You can clean the display screen by spraying a small amount of glass cleaner onto a soft, clean cloth and then wiping the screen gently with the cloth.

Using the cleaning cloth

The cleaning cloth can be used to wipe away dust and fingerprints from the keyboard and palm rest area of your computer.

When wiping the keyboard, palm rest and display panel, do so gently without using excessive pressure.

Do not use the cleaning cloth when it is dirty or wet.

Do not use the cleaning cloth soaked with water, detergents or volatile organic solvents.

It is recommended that you wash the cloth if it gets soiled using a gentle, mild detergent and rinse it well. Allow it to air dry completely before using it again on your computer.

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.

Moving the computer

While the computer is designed for rugged durability you should exercise a few simple precautions when moving it in order to help ensure trouble-free operation.

Make sure all disk activity has ended before moving the computer - check that the HDD and other indicators on the front of the computer are off.

Turn off (shut down) the computer.

Disconnect the AC adaptor and all peripherals before moving the computer.

Close the display panel.

Do not pick up the computer by its display panel.
