Cleaning iPhone
Clean iPhone immediately if it comes in contact with any contaminants that may
cause stains, such as ink, dyes, makeup, dirt, food, oils, and lotions. To clean iPhone,
disconnect all cables and turn o iPhone (press and hold the On/O Sleep/Wake
button, then slide the onscreen slider). Then use a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth.
Avoid getting moisture in openings. Don’t use window cleaners, household cleaners,
aerosol sprays, solvents, alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives to clean iPhone. The front cover
of iPhone 3GS and the front and back covers of iPhone 4 are made of glass and have
an oleophobic coating. To clean these surfaces, simply wipe with a soft, lint-free cloth.
The ability of this coating to repel oil will diminish over time with normal usage, and
rubbing the screen with an abrasive material will further diminish its eect and may
scratch the glass.
