Caring for your computer

This section gives tips on cleaning and moving your computer. For

information about taking care of your computer’s battery, see

“Taking care of your battery” on page 117.

Cleaning the computer

Keep liquids, including cleaning fluid, out of the computer’s

keyboard, speaker, and other openings. Never spray cleaner directly

onto the computer. Never use harsh or caustic chemical products to

clean the computer.

To keep your computer clean, gently wipe the display panel and

exterior case with a lightly dampened cloth.

Moving the computer

Before moving your computer, even across the room, make sure all

disk activity has ended (the drive indicator light stops glowing) and

all external peripheral cables are disconnected.

Do not pick up the computer by its display panel or by the back.

Doing so could damage the system.

Using a computer lock

You may want to secure your computer to a heavy object such as

your desk. The easiest way to do this is to purchase an optional

computer lock cable. For more information on purchasing a cable

lock, visit accessories.toshiba.com.
