General Cleaning
•
Using a can of compressed air, you may blow out the system
thoroughly until most dust and other particles are removed
from your system. When directing air to any fan, please
ensure to hold the fan so it does not spin with the air current,
as allowing the fan to spin during this procedure may
damage the fan bearings and will make it significantly harder
to clean the fan.
•
A dry microfiber cloth may be used to wipe away and excess
dust carefully. Be sure not to get too close to any
motherboard components while wiping down the system.
Painted Chassis
•
Complete the steps listed above in the “General Cleaning”
section
•
Using a detailing cleaner spray, apply it to a section of the
chassis and apply some pressure while wiping it down. If
your chassis has interior paint as well, you may wipe the
inside of the system while remaining careful to stray away
from the motherboard and its components.
•
Wipe down the system with a dry section of the microfiber
cloth. Ensure that every part that had detailer applied was
wiped back over with a dry cloth.
