authorized service provider in order to assess the scope of any
damage.

Clean the plastics of the computer using a slightly water dampened

You can clean the display screen by spraying a small amount of glass
cleaner onto a soft, clean cloth and then wiping the screen gently with
the cloth.

Moving the computer

disconnect the computer from the LAN.

Never spray cleaner directly onto the computer or let liquid run into any
part of it. Never use harsh or caustic chemical products to clean the
computer.
