Chapter 3 Maintenance
Exterior Cleaning
Clean the exterior surfaces of the chassis with a dry lint-free cloth or a soft-bristle brush. If any 
dirt remains, wipe with a cloth moistened in a mild soap solution. Remove any soap residue by 
wiping with a cloth moistened with clear water. Do not use abrasive compounds on any part of 
the chassis.
Cautions Avoid getting moisture inside the chassis during exterior cleaning, 
especially through the top vents. Use just enough moisture to dampen the cloth.
Do not wash the front- or rear-panel connectors or switches. Cover these components 
while cleaning the chassis.
Do not use harsh chemical cleaning agents; they may damage the chassis. Avoid 
chemicals that contain benzene, toluene, xylene, acetone, or similar solvents.
