When the screen becomes dirty, wipe it with
an approved soft cloth.
The screen is specially treated to prevent dirt
from adhering to the surface, so dirt can be
removed easily using a dry cloth (use only the
approved soft cloth).
Remove the dirt, water, etc. as soon as
possible. Otherwise, the LCD panel is stained
or changes in quality.
If the dirt does not come off easily, breathe on
the surface and try again.

Clean the screen while the computer is
powered off.
Cleaning the screen while the power is on
may cause the computer to malfunction. Also,
dirt on the screen is easier to see when the
computer is powered off, and so is easier to
clean.

Wash the soft cloth when it becomes dirty.
When the soft cloth becomes dirty, wash it
with mild detergent. Do not use bleach or
fabric conditioner (softener), or try to sterilize
the cloth by boiling.
If the soft cloth is dirty, it may be ineffective
in cleaning the screen, and in fact may cause
dirt to adhere to the screen.
