On a schedule appropriate for your site, wipe off the chassis exterior ,
keyboards, color monitor , trackball, and other accessible areas. Dampen a
lint-free cloth in a mild cleaning solution. Do not allow moisture to flow into
the electronic circuits.

these special guidelines.

CAUTION
Moving a vacuum cleaner near a diskette can destroy stored data. Using a
vacuum cleaner near a monitor can distort color purity .
Be extremely careful when using vacuum cleaners around PCS 7 hardware.
Motors are inductive devices that create stray magnetic fields.
• Use a vacuum cleaner with a long hose and nozzle so you can keep the
motor assembly well away from critical areas.
• Do not turn a vacuum cleaner off in front of the monitor .
Observe the overall monitor picture quality periodically . Perform the
following procedures as often as necessary .
•
If necessary , rotate the monitor controls through their full range to see
if a satisfactory setting can be achieved.
• Observe picture purity . Does the screen show “spots” or other evidence
of poor color adjustment?
If you discover a problem, determine its severity . Relatively minor problems,
such as a purity problem, can be repaired by using the degaussing switch
located on the front of the unit. Other minor repair may be delayed for
action at a time appropriate to the user .
If you discover a more serious problem that requires immediate action,
contact your supplier .
