5. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Logitech Brio 300 webcam, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning the Lens: Gently wipe the camera lens with a soft, lint-free cloth. For stubborn smudges, slightly dampen the cloth with a lens cleaning solution. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals.
- Cleaning the Body: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the body of the webcam. Do not use liquid cleaners directly on the device.

6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your Logitech Brio 300, try the following troubleshooting steps:
