Maintenance guidelines
Cleaning your monitor
WARNING: Before cleaning the monitor, unplug the monitor power cable
from the electrical outlet.
CAUTION: Read and follow the
monitor.
For best practices, follow the instructions in the list below when unpacking, cleaning,
or handling your monitor:
• Use a clean cloth that is slightly dampened with water to clean the stand
assembly, the screen, and the chassis of your Dell monitor. If available, use a
screen-cleaning tissue or solution suitable for cleaning Dell monitors.
• After cleaning the surface of the table, ensure that it is thoroughly dry and free
from any moisture or cleaning agent before placing your Dell monitor on it.
CAUTION: Do not use detergents or other chemicals such as benzene,
thinner, ammonia, abrasive cleaners, alcohol, or compressed air.
WARNING: Do not directly spray the cleaning solution or even water
directly on the surface of the monitor. Doing so will allow liquids to
accumulate at the bottom of the display panel and corrode the electronics
resulting in permanent damage. Instead, apply the cleaning solution or
water to a soft cloth and then clean the monitor.
CAUTION: Using chemicals for cleaning may cause changes in the
appearance of the monitor, such as color fading, milky film on the monitor,
deformation, uneven dark shade, and peeling of screen area.
NOTE: Monitor damages due to improper cleaning methods and the use
of benzene, thinner, ammonia, abrasive cleaners, alcohol, compressed air,
detergent of any kind will lead to a Customer Induced Damage (CID). CID
is not covered under the standard Dell warranty.
• If you notice white powder when you unpack your monitor, wipe it off with a
cloth.
• Handle your monitor with care as a darker-colored monitor may get scratched
and show white scuff marks more than a lighter-colored monitor.
• To help maintain the best image quality on your monitor, use a dynamically
changing screen saver and turn off your monitor when not in use.
