3. Damage Requiring Service
The appliance should be serviced by qualified service personnel when:
• Keyboard has fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the appliance; or
• The appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked change in performance; or
• The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.
4. Servicing
The user should not attempt to service the appliance beyond that described in the operating instructions. All other servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel.
5. Care and Cleaning
Use a soft cloth or dusting attachment of your vacuum cleaner to dust your keyboard. Plastic surfaces are easily scratched and with excessive use of oil-based furniture polishes, materials on the keyboard will accumulate more dust. A non-abrasive, anti-static cleaner / polisher is recommended.
