Cleaning
Ɣ Clean exterior surfaces as necessary.
Ɣ Use a soft cloth to wipe away dirt and buildup.
Ɣ Do not blow too hard with compressed air as it may cause dust to get in through the gaps.
Ɣ Do not use oil–based solvents as they can harm lacquered and painted surfaces.
Ɣ To remove severe buildup, wipe gently with a soft cloth soaked in a neutral detergent or alcohol.
