Chapter 6. Taking Care of Your Computer This section provides guidelines for the proper handling and care of your computer. Basics Here are some basic points about keeping your computer functioning properly: Keep your computer in a clean, dry environment. Make sure it rests on a flat, sturdy surface. Do not place items on top of the monitor or cover any of the vents in the monitor or computer. These vents provide air flow to keep your computer from overheating. Keep food and drinks away from all parts of your computer. Food particles and spills might make the keyboard and mouse sticky and unusable. Do not get the power switches or other controls wet. Moisture can damage these parts and cause an electrical hazard. Always disconnect a power cord by grasping the plug, not the cord. Cleaning Your Computer It is a good practice to clean your computer periodically to protect the surfaces and ensure trouble-free operation. CAUTION: Be sure to turn the computer and monitor power switches off before cleaning the computer and monitor screen. Computer and Keyboard Use only mild cleaning solutions and a damp cloth to clean the painted surfaces of the computer. © Copyright IBM Corp. 1998 47
