When Using Your Computer (continued)
• Clean the display with a soft, clean cloth and water. Apply the water to the cloth; then
stroke the cloth across the display in one direction, moving from the top of the display to
the bottom. Remove moisture from the display quickly and keep the display dry. Long-
term exposure to moisture can damage the display. Do not use a commercial window
cleaner to clean your display.
• If your computer gets wet or is damaged, follow the procedures described in "Solving
Problems" in your User’s Guide. If, after following these procedures, you confirm that your
computer is not operating properly, contact Dell (see "Getting Help" in your User’s Guide
for the appropriate contact information).
