#4 Electronic devices

This should not be something we have to explain to you, but for some, it’s not as easily recognizable. There are still people who think that you can clean electronic devices with water when it is known that you shouldn’t mix electricity with liquids!

In general, dry dusting should be used to clean any electronic device. Yet if you have something that needs more cleaning attention, you shouldn’t just use water. Using a very slightly damp cloth will do the trick, but it needs to be wet with light-duty device cleaning products and not just water.

Do not spray the cleaner directly on the device, as it can get inside through the crevices. And if you’re not sure if you can use the damp cloth method or if you may forget it, opt to use some special cleaning wipes for electronics!
