12 chapter MAINTENANCE AND TRAVEL GUIDELINES Caring for the Computer Keep the computer in good condition and working properly by following these guidelines: s Operate the computer with a battery pack installed, even when using external power. This supplies the battery pack with a charge and ensures a fully charged battery pack the next time the computer is used without external power. s Keep the computer away from excessive moisture and temperature extremes. Do not expose the computer to liquids or precipitation. s Remove the battery pack from the computer if the computer will not be used for an extended period of time (more than two weeks). Store the battery pack in a cool, dry place. s To prevent possible damage to the display, do not place anything on top of the computer when it is closed. Store the computer in a slipcase. s Occasionally wipe the exterior of the computer and the screen with a soft, damp cloth moistened only with water. Using soap or other cleaning products may discolor the finish and damage the screen. ! WARNING: Do not spray liquid directly on the computer screen. Excess liquid may drip down inside the computer and cause damage to the components or result in electrical shock.
