Flat screen monitors, also known as LCD monitors, are a little different than their CRT cousins when it comes to cleaning. Your standard CRT monitor has a glass screen and be cleaned in pretty much the same way as you would any other glass in your home or office. Flat screen monitors, however, require a bit of special care when cleaning. Their displays are much more sensitive and are easily scratched and damaged. Follow the easy steps below to safely clean your flat screen monitor in just a few minutes. Here's How: 1. Turn off the monitor. If the screen is dark, it will be easier to see the areas that are dirty or oily. 2. Use a dry, soft cloth and very gently wipe the screen. A great choice would be the microfiber type of cloth used to clean eyeglasses. See Tip #1 below for kinds of cloths to avoid. 3. If the dry cloth did not completely remove the dirt or oil, do not press harder in an attempt to scrub it off. Pushing directly on the LCD screen can often cause pixels to burn out. 4. If necessary, dampen the cloth with distilled water or with an equal ratio of distilled water to white vinegar. See Tip #2 below for products to avoid. Many companies also sell small spray bottles of special cleaner for flat screen monitors but the vinegar mixture is usually just as effective. 5. The plastic edge that surrounds the screen can be cleaned with any multipurpose cleaner but take care to avoid contact with the screen itself. Tips: 1. Avoid using paper towels, toilet paper, tissue paper, or something like your shirt to wipe the LCD screen. These non-ultrasoft materials can easily scratch the screen. 2. Avoid cleaning products that contain ammonia, ethyl alcohol, acetone, toluene, ethyl acid, or methyl chloride. These chemicals can react with the materials that the LCD screen is made of which could yellow the screen or cause other kinds of damage. 3. Never spray liquid directly on the LCD screen or it could run inside the monitor and cause <http://www.keralites.net>damage. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* ------------------------------ * * <http://keralites.Net>* <http://www.keralites.net>* --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "newsline" group.
