Cleaning Your Monitor
Improper cleaning methods can result in phys
ical damage to Dell monitors. Physical
defects may affect the screen and body of the monitor.
CAUTION: Read and follow the Sa
fety Instructions before cleaning the
monitor.
WARNING: Before cleaning the monitor, unplug the monitor power
cable from the electrical outlet.
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
wa
ter. If possible, use a special screen-cleaning tissue or solution suitable for
the Dell Monitor screen.
CAUTION: Do not use detergents of any kind or other chemicals such as
ben
zene, thinner, ammonia, abrasive cleaners, or compressed air.
Do no
t directly spray the cleaning solution or even water on the
surface of the monitor. Directly spraying liquid onto the panel will roll down
to the bottom of the panel and corrode the electronics resulting in permanent
damage. Instead, apply solution or water to soft cloth material.
