ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, Ill. - illiNews -- Cleaning & Disinfecting TRU-Vu Touch Screens (COVID-19)

While cleaning does help to reduce germs that can lead to infection, it does not kill the germs. Disinfecting utilizes chemicals to kill germs to reduce/eliminate the chance of infection.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) states: "diluted housed bleach solutions, alcohol solutions with at least 70% alcohol, and most common EPA-registered household disinfectants should be effective" for disinfecting surfaces to prevent the spread of coronavirus (COVID-19).

Cleaning Guidelines

• Prepare your touch screen for cleaning by powering down the device, if possible.

• Be sure to not get any liquids inside of the unit. To best avoid doing so, do not directly spray the monitor. Either use wet wipes, or spray/dampen a cloth and be sure to squeeze any excess moisture off.
• Avoid using abrasive cloths, such as rags or paper towels, as they can spread lint and/or even damage the screen. Instead, use only non-abrasive cloths, such as soft lint-free cloth, in order to avoid scratching the monitor.
• Avoid products that may cause discoloration, such as highly concentrated alcohol (>85%), non-diluted bleach or ammonia solutions.
• Wipe the surface of the monitor gently in small circles, and then allow it to dry. Wash hands and discard the used gloves.
• Disinfecting Guidelines

• Prepare your touchscreen for disinfecting by powering down the device, if possible.
• Dampen a new clean, non-abrasive cloth with a disinfectant recommended by the CDC: a household bleach solution (1/3 cup of bleach per gallon of water) or Isopropyl alcohol (71% to 85% alcohol). Be sure to squeeze any excess liquid off of the cloth. Do not spray the solution directly onto the touch screen.
