Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down the exterior of the case. For the tempered glass panel, use a glass cleaner and a microfiber cloth to avoid streaks. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the finish.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your PC build within the Vetroo AL800 case, consider the following general troubleshooting steps:

• No Power: Double-check all power connections from the power supply to the motherboard, CPU, and graphics card. Ensure the power button cable is correctly connected to the motherboard.
• No Display: Verify that your monitor is connected to the graphics card (not the motherboard's integrated graphics, unless intended). Reseat the graphics card and RAM modules.
• Overheating: Ensure all case fans are spinning and correctly oriented for airflow. Clean dust filters and check CPU cooler installation.
• ARGB Lighting Issues: Confirm the 5V 3-pin ARGB cable is securely connected to the motherboard. Check your motherboard's ARGB software for proper configuration.
• USB/Audio Ports Not Working: Ensure the front panel USB and audio cables are correctly connected to the corresponding headers on your motherboard.

For more specific issues, consult the manuals for your individual PC components (motherboard, GPU, PSU, etc.) or contact Vetroo customer support.
