the EPA.

CLEANING THE DUST FILTER

system. Depending on the environment in which the

function of the system.

1. Turn off your computer and disconnect the AC

adapter.

2. Close the display panel and turn the system upside

down.

3. Remove the dust filter by pressing the latch towards

the filter and lifting it out (Figure 6-1).

4. Carefully clean the dust filter and the air-cooling

duct.

5. Put back the dust filter by inserting the end without

latch first and pushing in the filter until it latches.
