Cleaning your Board

Follow these instructions for the cleaning of your interactive display screen without damaging its anti-glare coating or other product components. These instructions are also suitable for interactive whiteboards and all other SMART accessories.

Feel free to contact the helpdesk at x4380 with any questions.

Generally, it is best to use only a cloth slightly dampened with distilled water to clean your SMART Board. Never spray liquid directly onto the surface of the SMART Board.

SMART has tested and approves the use of the following:

70-90% isopropyl alcohol

Isopropyl alcohol comes pre diluted and no mixing is required. For concentrations above 90%, dilute accordingly with distilled water.

We recommend using prep wipes for applying the solution to avoid oversaturating it.]

Note: Always test a small, inconspicuous area before you clean the entire surface.

To clean the screen

You will need two lint free, non-abrasive cloths for this procedure.

1. Turn off any connected computers.

2. Turn the display off. Go to support.smarttech.com/hardware/displays and find your specific model for instructions.

3. Wipe all surfaces with the first dry lint-free, non-abrasive cloth to remove dust and debris.

4. Gently spray a small amount of the water or cleaning solution on the second cloth.
   Note: Do not oversaturate the cloth to the point it is dripping.

5. Wipe the screen with the dampened cloth.

6. After wiping the screen, wipe off the remaining SMART Board surfaces that one can normally touch, such as the frame, pens, and other accessories.

• Do not rub the screen with dense or rough material.

• Do not apply pressure to the screen.

• Do not use cleaning solutions or glass cleaners on the screen except as noted previous, because they can damage or discolor the screen.
