7.2 Cleaning and Serving

When cleaning your notebook, follow these steps:

1. Power off your notebook and remove the battery pack.

2. Disconnect the AC adapter.

3. Use a soft cloth moistened with water. Do not use liquid or

aerosol cleaners.

When it comes to screen problems, heat plays a big part. After a

good working session, the typical routine is to shut the machine

and close the cover. But the display surface - no matter what

type it is - and the components inside the computer radiates

heat; when you close the cover, you trap the heat against the

screen. Leave your notebook computer's cover open for about

ten minutes while the heat disperses. Make this a habit.

You should also enable the power management of your notebook

to turn off the LCD power and display when the system is in

inactivity for some time. Adding screen savers is also

acceptable.

Follow the safety guidelines mentioned earlier and how to clean

your notebook computer.

Losing your data has the same consequences as a system break

down. Users must make it a habit of doing hard disk

maintenance every week or so. Here is some maintenance you

could do:

•

Always backup your data files from your hard disk.

•

Install the virus detecting program to monitor virus that

could tamper your files.

•

Use SCANDISK once in a while to correct any errors found in

the directory and File Allocation Table. This will also free up

space from any unused sectors.
