LED TV screens are liquid crystal displays (LCDs) that use light-emitting diodes (LEDs) as backlight sources. LED TV screens can provide high-definition, high-contrast and low-power consumption picture quality, but they also need regular cleaning to maintain their good condition. If you want to know how to clean an LED TV screen properly, then please continue reading this blog, I will introduce you some simple and effective methods.
Prepare Tools
Before starting to clean an LED TV screen, you need to prepare the following tools:
- A soft, clean, lint-free cloth, such as a microfiber cloth or a cotton cloth. Do not use paper towels, towels or other rough materials, because they may scratch or leave lint on the screen.
- A bottle of special electronic device cleaner, or some warm water and white vinegar mixture. However, do not use cleaners that contain alcohol, ammonia, acid or alkali, because they may damage or fade the screen.
- Some cotton swabs or toothpicks, for removing dust or dirt from the edges or gaps of the screen.
Turn Off Power
Before cleaning the LED TV screen, you need to turn off the power and unplug the power cord, to prevent electric shock or short circuit. At the same time, turning off the power can also make it easier for you to see the stains or fingerprints on the screen.
Wipe Surface
First, you need to use a soft, clean, lint-free cloth to gently wipe the surface of the screen, to remove dust or loose dirt. Do not rub or press the screen hard, because this may damage the pixels or cause color distortion. If you find any stubborn stains or fingerprints, then please continue reading the next step.
Spray Cleaner
Second, you need to spray some special electronic device cleaner or warm water and white vinegar mixture on the cloth, rather than directly on the screen. This is to avoid liquid seeping into the inside or edges of the screen and causing damage. Then, you need to use a damp cloth to gently wipe the surface of the screen, to remove stains or fingerprints. Do not stay in one place for too long, to prevent water marks.
Dry Screen
Finally, you need to use another soft, clean, lint-free cloth to gently wipe the surface of the screen, to absorb excess moisture and make it completely dry. Do not use a hair dryer or other heat sources to speed up the drying process, because this may cause the screen to overheat or deform. If you find any dust or dirt remaining on the edges or gaps of the screen, then you can use cotton swabs or toothpicks to gently remove them.
Finish Cleaning
Congratulations, you have completed the cleaning process of the LED TV screen. You can plug in the power cord again and turn on the power. Then, enjoy the sparkling, crisp and vivid picture that your LED TV screen brings you. If you want to keep your LED TV screen in its best condition, then you can repeat these steps regularly, generally it is recommended to clean it once every two weeks or every month.
