the soft cloth . Take that cloth wipe off your screen gently. For a flat
panel LCD monitor (Liquid Crystal Display)remember that you have to use
a soft dry cloth. If this does not completely remove the dirt and smear,
use a soft cloth moistened with water to clean it . If you still need more
cleaning, apply a little of isopropyl alcohol to the damp cleaning cloth.
