Use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with water or a non-abrasive, monitor-specific screen cleaner. Do not spray cleaner directly onto the screen.
Wipe the screen and exterior surfaces gently. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive pads, or solvents, as these can damage the display or casing.
