This section provides tips for the care and maintenance of the Cintiq.
Caring for the Cintiq
Replacing the pen nib
CARING FOR THE CINTIQ
Keep pens and the Cintiq LCD screen surface clean. Dust and dirt particles can stick to the pen and cause
excessive wear to the screen surface. Regular cleaning will help prolong the life of your LCD screen surface
and pen.
Keep the Cintiq and pens in a clean, dry place and avoid extremes in temperature. Room temperature is
best. To protect your pen, store it in the pen case if you will not be using it.
The Cintiq and the pens are not made to come apart, except to personalize your pen with a color ring.
Otherwise, taking apart the product will void your warranty.
Important: Take care to never spill liquids onto the Cintiq or the pen. Be especially careful of getting
the display, Rocker Ring, ExpressKey or pen buttons and tip wet as they contain sensitive electronic
parts that will fail if they are exposed to liquids.
Prevent scratching by replacing your pen nibs frequently. When the nibs are worn or pointed they can
damage your Cintiq. See
To clean the Cintiq casing or pens, use a soft, damp cloth; you can also dampen the cloth using a very mild
soap diluted with water. Do not use paint thinner, benzine, alcohol, or other solvents to clean the product
casing or pen.
To clean the screen, use an anti-static cloth or a slightly damp cloth. When cleaning, apply only a light
amount of pressure, and do not make the screen surface wet. Do not use detergent to clean the screen, as
this may damage it. Damage of this kind is not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.
