To clean the lid backing

1.Turn off the product, unplug the power cord, and raise the lid.

2.Clean the white document backing with a soft cloth or sponge slightly moistened with a mild soap and warm water.

Wash the backing gently to loosen debris. Do not scrub the backing.

3.Dry the backing with a dry, soft, lint-free cloth.

CAUTION: Do not use paper-based wipes, as these might scratch the backing.

4.If further cleaning is needed, repeat the previous steps using isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol, and wipe the backing thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove any residual alcohol.

CAUTION: Be careful not to spill alcohol on the glass or exterior of the product, as this might damage it.

5.Plug in the power cord, and then turn on the product.

Clean the exterior

Use a soft cloth or slightly moistened sponge to wipe dust, smudges, and stains off the case. The interior of the HP All-in-One does not require cleaning. Keep fluids away from the control panel and the interior of the HP All-in-One.

CAUTION: To avoid damage to the exterior of the HP All-in-One, do not use alcohol or alcohol-based cleaning products.

Turn off the HP All-in-One

To avoid damaging the product, you must properly shut it down by using the On button located on the product. Wait until the On light turns off before you unplug the power cord or turn off a power strip.
