Cleaning your server

Cleaning the keyboard
You should clean the keyboard occasionally by using an aerosol can of air with
a narrow, straw-like extension to remove dust and lint trapped under the keys.
If you spill liquid on the keyboard, turn off your server and turn the keyboard
upside down. Let the liquid drain, then let the keyboard dry before trying to
use it again. If the keyboard does not work after it dries, you may need to
replace it. Keyboard damage resulting from spilled liquids is not covered by your
warranty.
Cleaning the screen
If your computer screen is a flat panel display, use a soft cloth and water to
clean the computer screen. Squirt a little water on the cloth (never directly on
the screen), and wipe the screen with the cloth.

If your computer screen is not a flat panel display, use a soft cloth and glass
cleaner to clean the monitor screen. Squirt a little cleaner on the cloth (never
directly on the screen), and wipe the screen with the cloth.
Cleaning the tape drive
If you use a tape drive to back up your files, regular maintenance will lengthen
the life of the drive. To maintain the drive’s reliability:
■ Clean the drive monthly with the cleaning cartridge included with
the drive.
■ Remove the tape from the drive whenever the drive is not being
actively used.
Warning The computer screen is made of specially coated glass
and can be scratched or damaged by abrasive or
ammonia-based glass cleaners.
