Cleaning your convertible
notebook
Keeping your convertible notebook clean and the vents free
from dust helps keep your convertible notebook performing
at its best. You may want to gather these items and put
together a notebook cleaning kit:
• A soft, lint-free cloth
• An aerosol can of air that has a narrow, straw-like
extension
• Cotton swabs
• A DVD drive cleaning kit
Cleaning the exterior
Always turn off your convertible notebook and other
peripherals before cleaning any components. Also, remove
the battery before cleaning any components.
Use a damp, lint-free cloth to clean your convertible notebook
and other parts of your system. Do not use household
abrasive or solvent cleaners because they can damage the
finish on components.
Warning
When you shut down your convertible notebook, the power turns off,
but some electrical current still flows through your convertible notebook. To
avoid possible injury from electrical shock, unplug the power cord, modem
cable, and network cable from the wall outlets and remove the battery.
