Caring for Your Computer
This section offers easy tips on looking after your computer. For
information about taking care of your computer's battery, refer to
"Looking After Your Battery" on page 136.
Cleaning the Computer
To keep your computer clean, perform the following tasks
regularly:
Clean the exterior case of the computer with a lightly damp-
ened cloth.
To clean the LCD, use a slightly damp cloth and gently wipe
the screen.
Keep liquid, including cleaning fluid, out of the computer's
keyboard, speaker grill and other openings. Never spray
cleaner directly onto the computer. Never use harsh or caustic
chemical products to clean the computer.
Ask your Toshiba dealer for suggestions for appropriate clean-
ing products.
Moving the Computer
As a notebook computer, the Portégé 650CT is built to withstand
reasonable shock and vibration. Before carrying or transporting
your computer, follow these steps:
1 Make sure all disk activity has ended (the drive indicator
light stops glowing).
2 Shut down Windows 95 and turn the computer off.
3 Disconnect the AC adapter.
4 Disconnect the external diskette drive.
