How to clean your mobile device
- Turn off the device
- Remove any cover or case and unplug any accessories
- Dampen a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth with a small amount of disinfectant. You can also use alcohol-based wipes (containing more than 70% ethanol or isopropyl alcohol) with smartphones (Apple 2020, Samsung 2020).
- Gently wipe the exterior surface of the device
Caution
- Do not apply disinfectant directly to the device
- Avoid getting liquid in the ports
- Clean the cover, case and accessories separately. See for example Apple’s advices on cleaning different materials (silicone, plastic or genuine leather).
