Caring for the Cintiq
Replacing the pen nib
CARING FOR THE CINTIQ
•
Keep pens and the Cintiq screen surface clean. Dust and dirt can stick to the pen and cause excessive
wear to the screen surface. Regular cleaning will help prolong the life of your 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.
•
You should not attempt to access, service or replace the Cintiq’s battery. If you have problems with
your battery, please contact Wacom Support. See
.
•
Take care to never spill liquids onto the Cintiq or the pen. Be especially careful not get the display,
Rocker Ring, ExpressKeys, or pen buttons and pen tip wet, as they contain sensitive electronic parts
that will fail if they are exposed to liquids.
•
Avoid scratching the screen 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.
