Operating Basics If an external display will not be connected next time you use your computer, you should cancel any extended desktop or clone display settings before shutting down your computer. Clone display settings are those where more than one device has been selected and is simultaneously applicable. Cleaning the computer To help ensure long, trouble-free operation, keep the computer free of dust and use care with liquids around the computer. ■ 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 before you turn it on again. ■ Clean the computer using a slightly damp (with water) cloth. You can use glass cleaner on the display. Spray a small amount of cleaner on a soft, clean cloth and wipe the screen gently with the cloth. 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 The computer is designed for rugged durability. However, a few simple precautions taken when moving the computer will help ensure trouble-free operation. ■ Make sure all disk activity has ended before moving the computer. Check the Built-in Hard Disk Drive and optical disc drive indicators on the computer. ■ If a disk is in the disk drive, remove it. ■ If a disc is in the optical disc drive, remove it. Also make sure the optical disc drive drawer is securely closed. ■ Turn off the power to the computer. ■ Disconnect all peripherals before moving the computer. ■ Close the display. Do not pick up the computer by its display panel or back (where the interface ports are located). ■ Close all port covers. ■ Disconnect the AC adapter if it is connected. ■ Use the carrying case when transporting the computer.
