Caring for your computer

Guidelines for turning off the computer:
If you have work in progress and are not connected to a


network, you can use the Windows Standby command to save
your system settings to memory so that, when you turn on the
computer again, you automatically return to where you left
off.
To leave the computer off for a longer period, you can use the


Windows Shut Down command instead. Alternatively, use
Hibernation mode to save the system settings to the hard disk.
Never turn off the power while a disk light on the system


indicator panel is on. Doing so may damage your hard disk,
diskette drive, or DVD-ROM drive.
For more information, see

Cleaning the computer

To keep your computer clean, gently wipe the display panel and
exterior case with a lightly dampened cloth. Ask your Toshiba

CAUTION: Keep liquid, including cleaning fluid, out of the
computer' s keyboard, speaker grille, and other openings.
Never spray cleaner directly onto the computer. Never use
harsh or caustic chemical products to clean the computer.
