Caring for your server

Cleaning tips
Always turn off your server and other peripheral devices before cleaning
any components.
Use a damp, lint-free cloth to clean your server and other parts of your
server system. Do not use abrasive or solvent cleaners because they can
damage the finish on components.
Keep the cooling vents free of dust. With your server turned off and
unplugged, brush the dust away from the vents with a damp cloth, but
be careful not to drip any water into the vents.
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 to let the liquid drain. Let the keyboard dry completely 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 only a damp, soft cloth to
clean it. Never spray water directly onto the screen.
- OR -
If your computer screen is not a flat panel display, use a soft cloth dampened
with glass cleaner to clean the screen. Never spray cleaner directly onto the
screen.
Warning When you shut down your server, the power turns off, but
some electrical current still flows through your server. To
avoid possible injury from electrical shock, unplug the
power cords and all other cables connected to the server.
Warning The computer screen is made of specially coated glass
and can be scratched or damaged by abrasive or
ammonia-based glass cleaners.
