Routine Care

You can keep the computer in good condition and working
properly by following these guidelines:
Operate the computer with a battery pack installed, even when
you're using external power. This supplies the battery with a
constant trickle charge and ensures a fully charged battery
pack the next time you turn on the computer.
Keep the computer away from excessive moisture and
temperature extremes. Do not expose the computer to liquids
or precipitation.
Remove the battery pack from the computer if the computer
will not be used for an extended period. Store the battery pack
in a cool, dry place when it is not in use.
To prevent possible damage to the display, do not place
anything on top of the computer when it is closed. Store the
computer in the slipcase, but do not store any other items
inside the case on top of the computer.
Occasionally wipe the exterior of the computer and the screen
with a soft, damp cloth moistened only with water.
Avoid exposing the computer to direct sunlight or strong
ultraviolet light for extended periods of time. Also avoid
scratching the surface of the screen and banging it against hard
objects.
CAUTION:
may discolor the finish and damage the screen. Do not spray liquid
directly on the computer screen. Excess liquid may drip down inside
the computer and cause damage to the components or result in
electrical shock.
