To clean the display
Apply a cleaning/disinfecting product to a soft lint-free cloth, such as a microfiber or gauze and rub the display surface thoroughly. In order to be effective, all surfaces must be cleaned for a certain amount of time (ranging from 30 seconds to 2 minutes).
Use a cleaning/disinfecting product that is alcohol-, alkali-, water- or chlorine-based. Common examples are:
- Isopropanol 100%
- Ethanol 70%
- 0.5% Chlorehexidine in 70% ethanol/isopropanol
- Ortho-Phthalaldehyde (OPA) 0.55%
- Haemo-sol, 1% in water
- 250 ppm Chlorine solution
- 1.0% lodine in 70% ethanol
- 1.6% aqueous ammonia
- “Green soap” (USP)
- 0.5% Chlorehexidine in 70% isopropyl alcohol
- Products similar to optical cleaning liquid
- Bacillol AF
- Flux
- Sodium hypochlorite 10%
When selecting an alternative cleaning/disinfecting product, it is recommended to always identify the active ingredients. In case of doubt about a certain cleaning product, use plain water.
Do not use any of the following products:
- Alcohol in concentrations > 70%
- Strong alkalis lye, strong solvents
- Acetone
- Toluene
- Acids
- Detergents containing fluoride
- Detergents containing ammonia
- Detergents containing abrasives
- Steel wool
- Sponge with abrasives
- Steel blades
- Cloths with steel thread
- Paper-based cloths (e.g. paper towels, facial tissues, toilet paper)
