2. Disconnect any attached devices from the computer and from their electrical outlets.

).

Do not allow water from the cloth to seep between the touch pad and the surrounding palm
rest.
Floppy Drive
NOTICE:
Do not attempt to clean drive heads with a swab. You might accidentally misalign the
heads which prevents the drive from operating.
Clean your floppy drive using a commercially available cleaning kit. These kits contain pretreated
floppy disks to remove contaminants that accumulate during normal operation.
CDs and DVDs
NOTICE:
Always use compressed air to clean the lens in the CD/DVD drive, and follow the
instructions that come with the compressed-air product. Never touch the lens in the drive.
If you notice problems, such as skipping, with the playback quality of your CDs or DVDs, try cleaning
the discs.
1. Hold the disc by its outer edge. You can also touch the inside edge of the center hole.
NOTICE:
To avoid damaging the surface, do not wipe in a circular motion around the
disc.
2. With a soft, lint-free cloth, gently wipe the bottom of the disc (the unlabeled side) in a straight
line from the center to the outer edge of the disc.
For stubborn dirt, try using water or a diluted solution of water and mild soap. You can also
purchase commercial products that clean discs and provide some protection from dust,
fingerprints, and scratches. Cleaning products for CDs are also safe to use on DVDs.
