Chapter Six: Care and Cleaning

Maintenance Tips

The Clean Screen PC is a well designed unit that does not require any regular maintenance. There are, however, a few tips we would like to pass along.

When installing and using the unit, make sure that nothing is blocking the vents. All circuitry generates heat in normal operation and keeping the vents unblocked is essential for trouble-free operation.

A combination of screen savers and power-saving routines will preserve the quality of the LCD screen. Set a screen saver to come on after a few minutes of inactivity. Then use the hardware BIOS Setup program (see Chapter Five) to turn off the display after a few more minutes. You will save power and protect the display.

Cleaning Tips

The Clean Screen PC was designed to take rough treatment in busy hospitals. In addition to tak- ing 50 g shocks, it also meets the tough UL2601 standard for safe operation. It can continue to operate even while being cleaned in a normal fashion for a hospital environment, such as with a saturated sponge or dampened, soft cloth. The UL2601 standard includes protection from stan- dard cleaning chemicals and protection from liquids consistent with these cleaning procedures. It has an IPX-1 rating per IEC529.

Approved cleaning solutions include:

Commercial or industrial grade general purpose cleaners (non-abrasive) Isopropanol (70% isopropyl alcohol)

5% bleach solution (5% aqueous sodium hypochlorite)

1.6% aqueous ammonia

0.5% phenolic compounds

0.5% chlorhexidine in 70% isopropyl alcohol

Commercial or industrial grade glass cleaners

DO NOT USE acetone or acetone based cleaners.

Although such cleaning should be perfectly safe, we nevertheless recommend cutting power to the unit whenever possible before cleaning. Although the Clean Screen and its power supply meet UL2601 standards, your peripherals or wall socket may not.
