How to take care your PlayStation3
I read the stikys I remeber it saying you can post a guide as long as you post a link were you go it so i got it from: http://www.gameolosophy.com/Consoles...d-Clean.206299 It was written by someone with the username: Raibolt . And the only reason i posted it sythe was because i wanted to add pictures.




1. Temperature

• Do not place your PS3 too close to the wall
• If your PS3 is placed on a closed space, place it atleast 4-6cm away from the walls
• Usually you should not allow your PS3 to exeed 20-35F higher than the current room temperature
• Place a thermometer on the wall just behind your PS3 to prevent it from reaching high temperatures

2. Overheat

When your PS3 encounters an overheat it usually turn's on and the power LED blinks 3 times or you will get a Yellow light blinking and then shuts down

• If your PS3 encounters an overheat (barely happens), put it somewhere where there's alot of airflow and away from any type of moisture. Also Windows are not recommended

3. Cleaning

I recommend cleaning your PS3 atleast once a week to prevent dust from comming in

• Use a low powered vaccum to suck out the dust out of the PS3's vents, remember to keep the vaccum atleast 2-3cm away from the PS3
• If you using a can of air, use the tube straw and let it blow from 4-6cm away from the PS3 (make sure tube is in correctly as it may fire the tube a damade your PS3) (DO NOT Spray the can upside down as it will release a freezing moisture that may damage electronics)
• If you're cleaning off the outside of your PS3 (Mainly the top and the chrome areas), use a microfibre cloth. The Playstation 3 is prone to scratch easily, typically a microfibre cloth will prevent this. NEVER use paper towels or any other paper based materieals. Including regular hand towels.
  

4. Shut Down Correctly

Sometimes when users of the PS3 don't have a clue to shut it down correctly, they tend to get errors

• The best way to probably shut down your PS3 is through the remote, hold the PS until you see "shut down system" and X on yes
• The other was is to just push the touch sensitive pad on the PS3 until it beeps
• NEVER SHUT DOWN FLIPPING THE SWITCH FROM THE BACK when it is on (solid green LED)!
