Clean the iMac screen - heres how to do it

When cleaning the iMac display, follow these tips to avoid damaging your device:

  • First turn off the iMac and unplug the device completely. If you are sufficiently careful, you can do without this.
  • The iMac comes with a suitable cloth for cleaning the display. This allows you to remove any dust from the screen. Just be careful not to press too hard on the display.
  • For further cleaning you will need a slightly damp and lint-free cloth or rag. Alternatively, you can also use a microfiber cloth . Use this to wipe the display in even movements.
  • Make sure that no moisture gets into the ventilation slots and other openings of the iMac. Also, do not use special cleaning products.
  • If you really want to use a display cleaner, spray it on the cloth and not directly on the screen .
