Cleaning the monitor
To clean the monitor:
• To clean an LCD flat panel monitor, use a soft cloth and
water to clean the screen. Dampen the cloth (never
apply liquid directly to the screen), then wipe the screen
with the cloth.
• To clean a CRT monitor, use a soft cloth and glass
cleaner to clean the monitor screen. Squirt a little
cleaner on the cloth (never directly on the screen), then
wipe the screen with the cloth.
Cleaning the mouse
If the mouse pointer begins moving erratically across the
computer screen or becomes difficult to control precisely,
cleaning the mouse will likely improve its accuracy.
To clean the mouse:
• Wipe the bottom of the mouse with a damp, lint-free
cloth.
Cleaning optical discs
Optical discs (CDs, DVDs, and Blu-ray Discs) get dirty from
frequent handling.
To clean an optical disc:
• Wipe from the center to the edge, not around in a circle,
using a product made especially for the purpose.
Caution
A flat-panel display is made of specially coated glass and can be
scratched or damaged by abrasive or ammonia-based glass cleaners.
