You should inspect your desktop computer for dust accumulation at least once
every three months. Before inspecting your computer, turn off the power and
unplug the computer's power cord from the electrical outlet; then remove any
dust from vents and perforations in the bezel. If you notice external dust
accumulation, you should also examine and remove dust from the inside of the
computer including heat sink inlet fins, power supply vents, and fans. Always
turn off and unplug the computer before opening the cover. If possible, avoid
operating your computer within 2 feet of high-traffic areas. If you must operate
your computer in or near a high-traffic area, you should inspect and, if
necessary, clean your computer more frequently.
For your safety and to maintain optimum computer performance, always
follow these basic precautions with your desktop computer:
v Keep the cover closed whenever the computer is plugged in.
v Regularly inspect the outside of the computer for dust accumulation.
v Remove dust from vents and any perforations in the bezel. More frequent
cleanings might be required for computers in dusty or high-traffic areas.
v Do not restrict or block any ventilation openings.
v Do not store or operate your computer inside furniture, as this might
increase the risk of overheating.
v Airflow temperatures into the computer should not exceed 35° C (95° F).
v Do not use non-desktop air filtration devices.

CD and DVD drive safety

CD and DVD drives spin discs at a high speed. If a CD or DVD is cracked or
otherwise physically damaged, it is possible for the disc to break apart or even
shatter when the CD drive is in use. To protect against possible injury due to
this situation, and to reduce the risk of damage to your machine, do the
following:
v Always store CD/DVD discs in their original packaging
v Always store CD/DVD discs out of direct sunlight and away from direct
heat sources
v Remove CD/DVD discs from the computer when not in use
v Do not bend or flex CD/DVD discs, or force them into the computer or their
packaging
