Power Supply
The power supply in your computer is a high-voltage component and should not be opened
for any reason, even when the computer is off. If the power supply needs service, contact your
Apple-authorized dealer or service provider.
Cleaning Your Equipment
Follow these general rules when cleaning the outside of your computer and its components:
m Use a damp, soft, lint-free cloth to clean the computer’s exterior. Avoid getting moisture
in any openings.
m Don’t use aerosol sprays, solvents, or abrasives.
Cleaning the Computer Case
To clean the case, do the following:
1 Tu rn off the computer completely and then disconnect the power plug. (Pull the plug, not
the cord.)
2 Wipe the surfaces lightly with a clean, soft cloth dampened with water.
Cleaning the Monitor
To clean the screen, put household glass cleaner on a soft cloth and wipe the screen.
Cleaning the Mouse
The mouse contains a small ball that must roll smoothly for the mouse to work properly. You
can keep this ball free of dirt and grease by using the mouse on a clean, lint-free surface and
cleaning it occasionally.
You need a few cotton swabs and a clean, soft, lint-free cloth.
1 Tu rn off your computer.
2 Tu rn the mouse upside-down and turn the plastic ring on the bottom counterclockwise to
disengage it.
See the following illustration.
If the mouse is locked, see the next section, “Locking and Unlocking the Mouse,” for
instructions on how to unlock it.
Warning To protect the power supply from damage, make sure the voltage switch on
the back of the computer is set correctly before you plug the computer into a power
outlet. See Chapter 1 for instructions on setting the voltage switch.
