Cleaning the keyboard CAUTION: Use safety glasses equipped with side shields before attempting to clean debris from under the keys. ● Follow the safety precautions presented in Service considerations on page 46 before cleaning the keyboard. ● Visible debris underneath or between the keys can be removed by vacuuming or shaking. ● Canned, pressurized air can be used to clean debris from under the keys. Use caution because too much air pressure can dislodge lubricants applied under the wide keys. ● If you remove a key, use a specially designed key puller to prevent damage to the keys. This tool is available through many electronic supply outlets. CAUTION: Never remove a wide leveled key (like the space bar) from the keyboard. If these keys are improperly removed or installed, the keyboard might not function properly. ● Clean under a key with a swab moistened with isopropyl alcohol and squeezed out. Be careful not to wipe away lubricants necessary for proper key functions. Allow the parts to air dry before reassembly. ● Use tweezers to remove any fibers or dirt in confined areas. Cleaning the monitor ● Follow the safety precautions presented in Service considerations on page 46 before cleaning the keyboard. ● To clean the monitor, wipe the monitor screen with a towelette designed for cleaning monitors or a clean cloth moistened with water. CAUTION: Do not use sprays or aerosols directly on the screen-the liquid might seep into the housing and damage a component. Never use solvents or flammable liquids on the monitor because display or housing damage may result. Cleaning the mouse 1. Follow the safety precautions presented in Service considerations on page 46 before cleaning the mouse. 2. Remove the mouse ball from the housing by removing the retaining plate. 3. Clean the mouse ball. 4. Pull out any debris from the ball socket, and wipe the ball with a clean, dry cloth. 5. Reassemble the mouse. 162 Appendix G Appendix G - Routine care ENWW
