using a small battery-operated vacuum cleaner. (A
battery-operated vacuum cleaner eliminates the risk of
electric shock.)

Cleaning the keyboard and mouse

When cleaning the keyboard keys, use a low setting
on the battery-powered vacuum cleaner, to avoid
removing key caps and springs.

Vacuum between the keys of the keyboard and
along the grooves.
2
Use a clean, dry cloth and isopropyl alcohol to
clean buildup on the keyboard keys and along its
edges.
3
Wipe the body of the mouse and the mouse cord
with cleaning wipes or a cloth and cleanser.
If you have a rollerball mouse, clean the ball and
rollers inside:
1
Turn the mouse upside down.
2
Rotate the ball-cover ring counterclockwise to
remove the ring and release the roller ball.
3
Rinse the roller ball with soap and warm water.
4
Clean the rollers inside the mouse with a cotton
swab dampened with isopropyl alcohol.
5
After the roller ball and rollers are completely dry,
replace the ball and ball-cover ring.
