How to clean your Samsung TV

There's nothing worse than straining to watch a show or movie because the screen is smudged or covered in dust. If you don't clean your TV or Odyssey Ark occasionally, dust and fingerprint smudges can build up. Periodically clean your TV or gaming screen so it keeps looking brand new and you can keep seeing the picture clearly.

How to clean your Samsung TV

Important
Never use any type of window cleaner, soap, scouring powder, wax, or any cleanser with solvents such as alcohol, benzene, ammonia, or acetone. Never use abrasive pads or paper towels. If you do, you can scratch the screen or strip the anti-glare coating off the screen and cause permanent damage. Never spray water directly onto the TV. Make sure to wipe the TV as gently as possible. TV screens are fragile and can be damaged when pressed too hard.

Cleaning the Frame or Serif TV

The Frame TV and Serif TV have a special reflective surface that is designed to reduce glare. However, some fingerprints and smudges will be harder to clean because of it. Try using a microfiber cloth, but if it doesn't work you can use a melamine foam sponge (magic eraser). Follow these steps exactly to clean the screen:

  1. Turn off the TV and unplug the power cord.
  2. Lightly dampen a microfiber cloth with a few drops of water and gently wipe the stain or spot.
  3. Gently clean the spot with a melamine foam sponge before the water dries up.
