Tips

Turn off the computer before cleaning the multi-touch screen.
Use a dry, soft, and lint-free cloth or a piece of absorbent cotton to remove fingerprints or dust from the multi-touch screen. Do not apply solvents to the cloth.
The multi-touch screen is a glass panel covered with a plastic film. Do not apply pressure or place any metallic object on the screen, which might damage the touch panel or cause it to malfunction.
Do not use fingernails, gloved fingers, or inanimate objects for input on the screen.
Regularly calibrate the accuracy of the finger input to avoid a discrepancy.
