Steps
Make sure your iPad is completely unplugged and press the "Sleep" button on the top of your iPad or turn your iPad off completely. Remove any additional external cords and/or electronics that may still be connected to the iPad.
If you have it, remove your iPad Cleaning Cloth from its case. The Cleaning Cloth is the black microfiber cloth that came with the iPad packaging. Briskly shake the cloth in the air to remove any loose particles from the microfiber.
If necessary, use compressed air to blow off any debris to avoid scratching your iPad's screen.

- Window or household cleaners
- Aerosol sprays
- Solvents
- Alcohol
- Ammonia
- Abrasives

- Keep an iPad Cleaning Cloth with your iPad at all times to wipe the screen after each use to avoid build-up of fingerprints and debris.
