Cleaning The Touch Screen - ChemInstruments PT-2000 Operating Instructions Manual

CLEANING THE TOUCH SCREEN

It's important to realize the touch panel is sensitive to chemicals.
Specific Cleaning Information: Use a soft, lint-free cloth. The 3M Microfiber Lens
Cleaning Cloth is especially recommended for cleaning touch panels without requiring
liquid cleaner. The cloth may be used dry or lightly dampened with a mild cleaner or
Ethanol. Be sure the cloth is only lightly dampened, not wet. Never apply cleaner
directly to the touch panel surface; if cleaner is spilled onto touch panel, soak it up
immediately with absorbent cloth. Cleaner must be neither acid nor alkali (neutral pH).
When using cleaner, avoid contact with the edges of the film or glass, and with the flex
tail. Wipe the surface gently; if there is a directional surface texture, wipe in the same
direction as the texture. Never use acidic or alkaline cleaners, or organic chemicals
such as: paint thinner, acetone, tolulene, xylene, propyl or isopropyl alcohol, or
kerosene. Suitable cleaning products are commercially available pre-packaged for use;
one example of such a product is Klear Screen™ or commercially available off-the shelf
retail brands such as Glass Plus® Glass and Surface Cleaner made by Reckitt-
Benckiser. Use of incorrect cleaners can result in optical impairment of touch panel
and/or damage to functionality.
Note: Most products contain 1-3% Isopropyl Alcohol by volume, which is within
acceptable limits for Resistive Touch Panel cleaning use.
Caution: Many products contain Ammonia, Phosphates, and/or Ethylene Glycol, which
are NOT ACCEPTABLE; check product content label carefully.
