- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to clean the screen and exterior. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but ensure no moisture enters any openings. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Ventilation: Keep the laptop's air vents clear of obstructions to prevent overheating. Avoid using it on soft surfaces like beds or blankets for extended periods.
