4. Wipe the exterior of the product gently with the moistened cloth.
IMPORTANT: Keep liquids away from the product. Avoid getting moisture in any openings. If liquid
makes its way inside your HP product, it can cause damage to the product. Do not spray liquids directly
on the product. Do not use aerosol sprays, solvents, abrasives, or cleaners containing hydrogen
peroxide or bleach that might damage the nish.
5. Start with the display (if applicable). Wipe carefully in one direction, and move from the top of the
display to the bottom. Finish with any exible cables, like power cord, keyboard cable, and USB cables.
6. Be sure that surfaces have completely air-dried before turning the device on after cleaning.
7. Discard the gloves after each cleaning. Clean your hands immediately after you remove the gloves.
Touch screen maintenance
Keep your display and touch sensor clean. The touch sensor requires very little maintenance. HP recommends
that you periodically clean the glass touch sensor surface.
Be sure to turn o your display before cleaning. Typically, an isopropyl alcohol and water solution ratio of
50:50 is the best cleaning agent for your touch sensor. It is important to avoid using any caustic chemicals on
the touch sensor. Do not use any vinegar-based solutions.
Apply the cleaner with a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid using gritty cloths. Always dampen the cloth and then
clean the sensor. Be sure to spray the cleaning liquid onto the cloth, not the sensor, so that drips do not seep
inside the display or stain the bezel.
MSR maintenance
To clean the MSR (magnetic strip reader), swipe a standard cleaning card through the MSR a couple of times.
You can order a standard cleaning card online. You can also put a thin oil-free cloth around a credit card.
