Maintenance tips:

•  Turn off the computer before cleaning the touch screen.

•  Use a dry, soft, and lint-free cloth or a piece of absorbent cotton to remove fingerprints or dust from the 

touch screen. Do not apply solvents to the cloth.

•  The touch screen is a glass panel covered with a plastic film. Do not apply pressure or place any metallic 

object on the screen, which might damage the touch panel or cause it to malfunction.

•  Do not use fingernails, gloved fingers, or inanimate objects for input on the screen.

•  Regularly calibrate the accuracy of the finger input to avoid a discrepancy.
