Cleaning the computer and monitor
cases
Warning
Always turn off the computer 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.
Your computer is cooled by air drawn in through the vents on the chassis
and blown out through the power supply exhaust fan. Keep vents on the front
and back of the chassis free of dust. With the computer turned off and
unplugged, brush the dust away from the vents with a slightly damp cloth.
Be careful not to drip any water into the vents. Do not attempt to clean dust
from the inside the computer.
When you clean the system, turn off the computer, monitor,
and peripherals and unplug the power cords. Be careful
not to drip liquid into the computer, monitor, and
peripherals when cleaning the system.
