- Why Electronics Need Special Care: Electronics such as phones, laptops, and tablets have delicate surfaces that can be easily damaged by harsh chemicals or excess moisture.
- Cleaning and Disinfecting Steps:
- Turn Off the Device: Always turn off and unplug the device before cleaning it.
- Use Soft Materials: Use a microfiber cloth to wipe screens and electronics. Avoid abrasive materials that can scratch the surface.
- Disinfecting: Use an alcohol-based disinfectant (preferably 70% isopropyl alcohol) on a cloth to gently clean screens and other surfaces. Never spray cleaner directly onto the device.
- Keyboards and Mice: For keyboards, use compressed air to remove debris, and wipe them down with a disinfectant wipe for sanitizing.
- Avoid Excess Moisture: Ensure that cloths are damp, not wet, to prevent moisture from entering into ports and other openings.
