Wipe or dust the stain gently with a soft, dry cloth. 3. If the stain remains, moisten a soft, lint-free cloth with water or a 50-50 mixture of isopropyl alcohol and water that does not contain impurities. 4. Wring out as much of the liquid as you can. 5. Wipe the display again; do not let any liquid drip into the computer. 6. Be sure to dry the display before closing it. Care for the fingerprint reader The following actions could damage the fingerprint reader or cause it not to work properly: v Scratching the surface of the reader with a hard, pointed object. v Scraping the surface of the reader with your nail or anything hard. v Using or touching the reader with a dirty finger. If you notice any of the following conditions, gently clean the surface of the reader with a dry, soft, lint-free cloth: v The surface of the reader is dirty or stained. v The surface of the reader is wet. v The reader often fails to enroll or authenticate your fingerprint. Special care of your ThinkPad Reserve Edition computer Your ThinkPad Reserve Edition computer has a high quality leather cover. This cover has been finished to optimize the inherent characteristics of leather, and in fact, its distinctive scent is evidence that it is genuine leather. Imperfections in the leather appearance and texture are normal. Over time, the leather cover will naturally darken and accumulate gentle scarring. These should be seen as evidence that the leather is being broken-in rather than wearing out. Much like a well-worn saddle, you can anticipate that your leather cover will take on the patina of regular use. To maintain its supple texture and quality, the leather cover does require special care. You can avoid unnecessary deterioration and discoloration as follows: v With daily use and exposure to sunlight, the leather cover will undergo tanning, which will actually improve its appearance.
