Care & Maintenance
There are a few things you can do to help insure that your WinBook provides you with trouble-
free service for an extended period. The computer is designed so that most of the vital
components are protected from external contamination. The main things you should do are to
keep the exterior of the computer clean and free from accumulated dust and dirt, and protect it
from electrical and physical shock hazards. We've already talked about electrical and physical
precautions elsewhere, so this section focuses on how to minimize contamination and how to
deal with dirt related problems.

nonabrasive cloth to wipe it. You can use a dampcloth - just make sure that it isn't so wet that
any liquid can get into the computer. Be particularly careful not to scratch the LCD screen.
There several places on the WinBook where dust & dirt can get inside the computer. You should
do what you can to prevent this. Here's a list of the sensitive areas and what you can do:
If dust and dirt get in the rear ports and affect the contact pins or receptacles, you may
experience problems when you connect devices to the ports. To prevent this, keep the port cover
door closed when you aren't using the ports. If you have cables connected to some, but not all of
the ports, try to keep the area behind the computer clean. Always keep the Docking Station

Audio Jacks & Volume Control

the base of the computer are more easily contaminated. Be especially careful not to let them
