Cleaning and maintenance

With appropriate care and maintenance, your computer will serve you reliably. The following topics offer

information to help you keep your computer working with best performance.

Basic maintenance tips

Here are some basic points about keeping your computer functioning properly:

• If possible, place your computer in a well-ventilated and dry area without direct exposure to sunshine.

• Store packing materials safely out of the reach of children to prevent the risk of suffocation from plastic

bags.

• Keep your computer away from magnets, activated cellular phones, electrical appliances, or speakers

(more than 13 cm or 5 inches).

• Avoid subjecting your computer to extreme temperatures (below 5°C/41°F or above 35°C/95°F).

• Avoid placing any objects (including paper) between the display and the keyboard or the palm rest.

• Computer display might be designed to be opened and used at a certain angle. Do not open the display

with force. Otherwise, the computer hinge might get damaged.

• Do not turn your computer over when the ac power adapter is plugged in, otherwise, it could break the

adapter plug.

• Before moving your computer, be sure to remove any media, turn off attached devices, and disconnect

cords and cables.

• When picking up your open computer, hold it by the bottom. Do not pick up or hold your computer by the

display.

• Only an authorized Lenovo repair technician should disassemble and repair your computer.

• Do not modify or tape the latches to keep the display open or closed.

• Avoid directly exposing your computer and peripherals to the air from an appliance that can produce

negative ions. Wherever possible, ground your computer to facilitate safe electrostatic discharge.

Clean your computer

It is a good practice to clean your computer periodically to protect the surfaces and ensure trouble-free

operation.

Clean the computer cover: Wipe it with a lint-free cloth dampened in mild soap and water. Avoid applying

liquids directly to the cover.

Clean the keyboard: Wipe the keys one by one with a lint-free cloth dampened in mild soap and water. If

you wipe several keys at a time, the cloth might hook onto an adjacent key and possibly damage it. Avoid

spraying cleaner directly onto the keyboard. To remove any crumbs or dust from beneath the keys, you can

use a camera blower with a brush or use cool air from a hair dryer.

Clean the computer screen: Scratches, oil, dust, chemicals, and ultraviolet light can affect the performance

of your computer screen. Use a dry, soft lint-free cloth to wipe the screen gently. If you see a scratchlike

mark on your screen, it might be a stain. Wipe or dust the stain gently with a soft, dry cloth. If the stain

remains, moisten a soft, lint-free cloth with water or eyeglass cleaner, but do not apply liquids directly to your

computer screen. Ensure that the computer screen is dry before closing it.
