A Clean Device During Cold Season
A Clean Device During Cold Season
Cleaning your Chromebook Keyboard: To clean your keyboard use a dry microfiber cloth to wipe it down. Deeper Cleaning1)First shut down and unplug all cables and devices from the Chromebook. 2)Use a damp microfiber cloth with plain water. Most of the time water alone is sufficient, but if it isn't, then a gentle cleaning solution comprised of 50% water and 50% white vinegar can be used. Never use any cleaning products containing bleach, alcohol, or ammonia. To clean, apply a small amount of water or the cleaning solution directly to a microfiber cloth so that it is damp but not so wet that it would drip liquid onto the device while cleaning. Make sure to ring out the microfiber cloth well and do not allow liquid to drop into the device while cleaning. You can turn the device back on after everything is completely dry.
