For best practices, follow the instructions in the list below when unpacking,
cleaning, or handling your monitor:
• To clean the Dell monitor screen, lightly dampen a soft, clean cloth with
water. If possible, use a special screen-cleaning tissue or solution suitable
for the Dell Monitor screen.
CAUTION: Do not use detergents or other chemicals such as benzene,
thinner, ammonia, abrasive cleaners, or compressed air.
CAUTION: Using chemicals for cleaning may cause changes in the
appearance of the monitor, such as color fading, milky film on the monitor,
deformation, uneven dark shade, and peeling of screen area.
WARNING: Do not spray the cleaning solution or even water directly on
the monitor surface. Doing so will allow liquids to accumulate at the
bottom of the display panel and corrode the electronics resulting in
permanent damage. Instead, apply the cleaning solution or water to a soft
cloth and then clean the monitor.
