Cleaning Tools
Some components in the panel PC may only be cleaned using a product specifically
designed for the purpose. In such case, the product will be explicitly mentioned in the
cleaning tips. Below is a list of items to use when cleaning the panel PC.
⚫
Cloth: Although paper towels or tissues can be used, a soft, clean piece of cloth is
recommended when cleaning the device.
⚫
Water or rubbing alcohol: A cloth moistened with water or rubbing alcohol can be used
to clean the device.
⚫
Using solvents: The use of solvents is not recommended when cleaning the device as
they may damage the plastic parts.

Vacuum cleaner: Using a vacuum specifically designed for computers is one of the
best methods of cleaning the device. Dust and dirt can restrict the airflow in the device
and cause its circuitry to corrode.

tools for wiping hard to reach areas.

Foam swabs: Whenever possible, it is best to use lint free swabs such as foam swabs
for cleaning.
