Cleaning the keyboard
Occasionally you should clean the keyboard to free it of dust and lint
particles trapped under the keys. The easiest way to do this is to blow
trapped dirt from under the keys using an aerosol can of air with a narrow,
straw-like extension.
If you spill liquid on the keyboard, shut down the computer and disconnect
the keyboard. Turn the keyboard upside down to allow the liquid to drain
out overnight before trying to use it again. If it fails to work after draining,
contact Technical Support.
Cleaning the monitor screen
Use a soft cloth and window cleaner to clean the monitor screen. Squirt a
little cleaner on the cloth (never directly on the screen), and wipe the screen
with the cloth.
Cleaning the computer and monitor cases
Always shut down the system and other peripherals before cleaning any
components.
Use a damp, lint-free cloth to clean the computer case, monitor case,
keyboard, speakers, and other parts of your system. Avoid abrasive or
solvent cleaners because they can damage the finish on your components.
