vul
nerable to computer viruses, hackers, spyware, and other malicious
activities that might damage your computer, software, or data.
• It is your responsibility to ensure that you have adequate protection in the
for
m of firewalls, antivirus software, and anti-spyware software and keep
this software up to date.

might have to replace your system board or hard disk drive.
■ Cleaning the cover of your computer
Occasionally clean your computer as follows:
1 Prepare a mixture of a gentle kitchen-use detergent (one that does not
contain abrasive powder or strong chemicals such as acid or alkaline).
Use 5 parts water to 1 part detergent.
2 Absorb the diluted detergent into a sponge.
3 Squeeze excess liquid from the sponge.
4 Wipe the cover with the sponge, using a circular motion and taking care
not to let any excess liquid drip.
5 Wipe the surface to remove the detergent.
6 Rinse the sponge with clean running water.
7 Wipe the cover with the clean sponge.
8 Wipe the surface again with a dry, soft lint-free cloth.
9 Wait for the surface to dry completely and remove any cloth fibers from
the computer surface.
Note: Shut down the computer and then disconnect the power cord before
cleaning the computer.
