(6) Keep it Clean from DUST and DIRT! Is this YOUR computer?
This is an actual Arp ISD classroom computer sent to us because it did not work!
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:
When fans become "guncked" up with dust, they stop working causing heat build-up in the machine.
(b) YOU are responsible for cleaning around a machine. You may use a moist wipe cloth around the machine (not on the monitor) so that you are NOT throwing up dust into the computer fan. You may use a Swiffer (gently) so that you are not throwing dust into the fan.
Please Watch the Video (Swiffer Man)
