Microphone
This jack is used to connect a microphone to your computer when you want to
record voice or other sounds on the hard disk. This jack can also be used with
speech recognition software.
Note: If you experience interference or speaker feedback while recording, try
reducing the microphone recording volume (gain).
Procedures for recording and playing back sound vary by operating system. See
your operating system documentation for information and instructions.
Taking care of your computer
Follow these guidelines for the proper handling and care of your computer.
Basics
Here are some basic points about keeping your computer functioning properly:
•
Keep your computer in a clean, dry environment. Make sure it rests on a flat,
sturdy surface.
•
Do not place items on top of the monitor or cover any of the vents in the
monitor or computer. These vents allow air flow to keep your computer and
monitor from overheating.
•
Keep food and drinks away from all parts of your computer. Food particles
and spills might make the keyboard and mouse sticky and unusable.
•
Do not get the power switches or other controls wet. Moisture can damage
these parts and cause an electrical hazard.
•
Always disconnect a power cord by grasping the plug, not the cord.
Cleaning your computer
It is a good practice to clean your computer periodically to protect the surfaces
and ensure trouble-free operation.
Attention: Be sure to turn off the computer and monitor before cleaning the
computer and monitor screen.
Computer and keyboard
Use only mild cleaning solutions and a damp cloth to clean the painted surfaces
of the computer and keyboard.
