During the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s important to clean commonly touched/used devices such us laptops and phones.Â
FOR LAPTOP
Step 1:Â Shut down your laptop and unplug it from its power source. If you can, remove the battery just to play it safe.
Step 2:Â Spray or apply the cleaning fluid onto a microfiber cloth. Make sure that the cloth is damp, but not wet.
Step 3:Â Gently rub the cloth over the affected area. Rub in small circles to avoid streaks and avoid heavy pressure as that can damage the display.
Step 4: Repeat as necessary, making sure not to drip any fluid onto your laptop’s display or keyboard.
Step 5:Â When finished, wait for the display to dry completely before closing the lid or powering on your laptop.
- To clean the tops of the keys, use isopropyl alcohol.
- Soak it up into a soft, dust-free cloth, or use a cotton swab and gently rub the key tops.
- Try not to drip any alcohol inside the keyboard, and never use a spray cleaner directly on the keyboard.
FOR PHONE
- Unplug all cables and turn off your iPhone.
- Use a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth—for example, a lens cloth.
- If material is still present, use a soft, lint-free cloth with warm soapy water.
- Avoid getting moisture in openings.
- Don’t use cleaning products or compressed air.
Using a 70 percent isopropyl alcohol wipe or Clorox Disinfecting Wipes, you may gently wipe the exterior surfaces of your iPhone. Don’t use bleach. Avoid getting moisture in any openings, and don’t submerge your iPhone in any cleaning agents.
