General Exterior Cleaning and Inspection
This section details the cleaning requirements for exterior surfaces of the appliance and the inspection 
of cables and adapter cards.
Caution
Never spray cleaning solution on the surfaces of the appliance. Overspray can penetrate into the 
appliance and cause electrical problems and corrosion.
Appliance
Use a lint-free, nonabrasive cloth to perform cleaning. Do not use a solvent, abrasive cleaning agents, or 
tissue paper. If the appliance is dirty (for example, with thick dust), use a soft damp cloth and wipe the 
surface of the appliance gently.
Immediately wipe off any water or liquid from the appliance.
Dust and Particles
A clean operating environment can greatly reduce the negative effects of dust and other particles, which 
act as insulators and interfere with the operation of an appliance’s mechanical components. In addition 
to regular cleaning, you should follow these guidelines to deter contamination of the appliance:
Do not permit smoking anywhere near the appliance.
Do not permit food or drink near the appliance.
Cables and Connectors
Inspect cables and connectors to and from your appliance periodically to see if they are worn out or 
loose.
Adapter Cards
Check the connections on the adapter cards. Be sure they are secured to the appliance and have not been 
jarred loose or mechanically damaged.
Corrosion
The oil from a person’s fingers or prolonged exposure to high temperature or humidity can corrode the 
gold-plated edge connectors and pin connectors on adapter cards in the appliance. This corrosion on 
adapter card connectors is a gradual process that can eventually lead to intermittent failures of electrical 
circuits.
To prevent corrosion, you should avoid touching contacts on adapter cards. Protecting the appliance from 
corrosive elements is especially important in moist and salty environments, which tend to promote 
corrosion. Also, as a further deterrent to corrosion, the appliance should not be used in extreme 
temperatures, as explained in the
