LCD cleaning

Why? Dirt, dust, and finger prints can cause the computer screen to be difficult to read.

Procedure: Unlike a computer monitor, the LCD or flat-panel display is not made of glass, therefore requires special cleaning procedures.

When cleaning the LCD screen it is important to remember to not spray any liquids onto the LCD directly, press gently while cleaning, and do not use a paper towel as it may cause the LCD to become scratched.

To clean the LCD screen we recommend that you use a non-rugged microfiber cloth, soft cotton cloth, or Swiffer duster.

If a dry cloth does not completely clean the screen, you can apply rubbing alcohol to the cloth and wipe the screen with the damp cloth. Rubbing alcohol is used to clean the LCD before it leaves the factory.

 

Monitor cleaning

Tip: This section is for computer monitors if you have a LCD or flat-panel see the LCD cleaning section.

Why?

Dirt, dust, and fingerprints can cause the computer screen to be difficult to read.

 

Procedure:

The glass monitor screen can be cleaned with ordinary household glass cleaner*.

Be sure to remove power from the monitor and spray the cleaner onto a lint free-cloth so the fluid doesn't leak into the electrical components inside the monitor.

Vacuum off any dust that has settled on top of the monitor, and make sure no books or papers have been placed on the air vents.

Obstructed monitor vents can cause the monitor to overheat or even catch on fire.

 

Caution: We suggest using a cloth dampened with water when cleaning monitor on a screen that is not made of glass or has any anti-glare

                  protection on the screen.

                  Using ordinary household glass cleaner on special screens, especially cleaners with ammonia can remove anti-glare protection or

                  other special surfaces.
