By the way, such a cloth for cleaning panels is actually included in the delivery package of many. If such a useful item was not sold with your new TV, then you should definitely buy it. You can find such rags in electronics supermarkets and in stores specializing in the sale of ordinary and .By the way, you must also remember that for the most part all manuals are copied from other manuals. Therefore, you need to read them thoughtfully, paying attention to details.
For example, instructions often fail to mention that the soft plastic surface of LCD panels is different from glass screens. Therefore, if you rub a stain on the “plasma” with some force, the glass will withstand it, but the LCD screen can easily be damaged with the same force.
Cleaners
Why isn’t, say, the familiar “Mr. Muscle” suitable for glass? Conventional cleaning products typically contain ammonia and ammonia are not the friendliest chemical substances. Manufacturers of household chemicals do not directly say that their products cannot be used to clean modern TV screens, but they produce various wipes and cleaning products like Color Way or Opti Clean specifically for such purposes. However, when buying even a specialized screen cleaner, it is better to look at the label once again and make sure that it does not contain alcohol or ammonia.

Almost all of them are 99% water plus 1% something else, but they clean screens. We will not figure out which of the means are better - those that are more expensive or those that are cheaper. Let’s just say that if you are used to using wipes of some brand to care for your laptop screen or PC monitor and their effectiveness satisfies you, then you can use them to clean your TV screen, but again, make sure that they do not contain alcohol and ammonia. If you don’t have such napkins at hand, then a cloth made of cotton wool soaked in soapy water will also work.
TOTAL
In general, wiping the HD TV screen efficiently is not difficult if you do it correctly. There is no need to experiment with various chemicals, especially since the manufacturers themselves do not recommend this. What to do? Find the cloth included in the package or buy a piece of microfiber in the store and use them. If the panel is very dirty (children have gotten something dirty, flies have been sitting on it, etc.), then try a soap solution. If this does not help, then it is better to contact a service center. When purchasing a cleaning product, carefully study its composition. When wiping the HDTV screen, do not press it too hard. Remember that there are only a couple of millimeters between your fingers and the damaged TV.
Improper care of the TV screen often causes damage to the special coating of the screen. Repair in this case is not always possible and, moreover, is quite expensive. In addition, the screens are highly sensitive even to weak mechanical influences. Contact of a sharp object with the surface of the screen easily leads to scratches and damage; if the screen is hit, it may crack. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the location of the TV in such a way as to prevent mechanical damage. Pets should not be allowed to come into contact with television screens. When moving the TV to another location, do not touch the surface of the screen with your fingers. There are types of screens that cannot withstand even light and short finger pressure - stains and damage that are difficult to remove are formed. The flower greenhouse should not be located in close proximity to the TV. Often the cause of failure household appliances is the ingress of water from irrigation. Some types of “domestic” animals in the form of banal cockroaches penetrate into the openings of the housing. This is a common cause of failure. The ventilation gaps in the housing must not be covered. It is also not recommended to install TVs in close proximity to heating appliances.
Rules for caring for your TV screen
The editors of Audio and Video do not advise you to experiment with expensive equipment, but to use products specifically designed for this purpose for care.
Do not wipe the screen with alcohol, window cleaning liquids, acetone, washing powder, soda, Sanita and other “wonderful” products. They are intended for completely different purposes. To remove dirt from the TV screen, users often use completely unsuitable means, even aggressive ones. Tap water containing chlorine, various sprays, hard napkins, paper towels and the first rags that come to hand - that’s what the happy owners of expensive TVs don’t use! All this leads to the formation of stains, stains and even microcracks and scratches on the screen coating. On numerous forums on the Internet you can read a huge number of different tips - how to care for screens, what to wipe with, what to dilute and with what, and in what proportions. The editors of Audio and Video do not advise you to experiment with expensive equipment, but to use products specifically designed for this purpose for care. Specially designed products do not create streaks or streaks, do not damage the screen and have an antistatic effect, which is very useful for any household appliance. Everything you need can be purchased in specialized stores, receiving advice from a professional sales consultant there. Few people know that when cleaning the screens of modern TVs, you cannot use any alcohol-containing products! TV manufacturers often warn about this. And even if the label of such a “miracle” product tells you how great and great this product copes with any contamination, there is no need to do this. Why? Modern screens, be they monitor displays or TV screens, contain a special anti-reflective coating. And it is known to be incredibly afraid of any household chemicals that contain alcohol. After such care, the screen becomes covered with a huge number of cracks and cracks.
Now about products in powder form. They are no less harmful to screens. Having abrasive properties, such powders will simply destroy the screen.
How to clean the screen then?
Currently, a huge range of different special screen care products is offered.
Special dry wipes for cleaning screens
When buying such napkins, you need to make sure that they are lint-free napkins. There is also a specially designed microfiber cloth that does an excellent job of cleaning the screen.

Special gels, aerosols, foams

What to do if there is no money? About improvised means
For cleaning, you can use a soft and delicate cloth such as flannel. You need to have two rags - dry and slightly damp. Not wet, just slightly damp! It is clear that they both must be immaculately clean.
First you need to wipe the screen with a cloth slightly dampened in soapy water, then you need to rinse the cloth thoroughly and, after rinsing off the soapy water, wipe the screen dry. Then wipe the screen again with a dry cloth. You can only take soft soap, for example, “Children’s”. The effectiveness of such a procedure is very questionable.
There are a number simple rules that are not difficult to follow:

It is also necessary to regularly clean the area around the outlet from dirt, since dust, water and ordinary household pollution lead to unnecessary consequences. The body can also be cleaned with special products or with a slightly damp flannel cloth.
There are a variety of screen cleaners currently available on the market that have very convenient spray nozzles. Such products do an excellent job not only of cleaning the screen of LCD TVs, but are also perfect for plasma and TFT panels, computer monitors, projection devices, as well as CRT TVs. This liquid will not damage the protective coating of the screen, will not leave streaks or white marks, and has excellent antistatic properties.

Caring for LED TV, plasma TV. Are there any differences?
In principle, it doesn’t matter what kind of TV you have. The principles of care for both the case and the screen are the same for any device. It should be noted that there is no need to be afraid of the supposedly high cost of special care products. For example, a 15 ml spray can from some world-famous manufacturing company is enough for a year of active use. The cost of a product of this volume will not exceed an average of $10. So think about what is better - questionable savings or effective care.

Previously, people could not imagine that a person’s breakfast could consist of various crispy balls with dried fruits, cereals and milk. But these days such food does not surprise anyone, because such a breakfast is very tasty and also easy to prepare. However, such food opens up a lot of controversy and discussion, since it is important for people to know the benefits and harms of breakfast cereals for human health. The very concept of dry food appeared in 1863, and it was introduced by James Jackson. The first food was compressed bran. Even though it wasn't very tasty, it was healthy food. The Kellogg brothers supported the idea of dry food already at the beginning of the twentieth century. At this time, both Americans and Europeans were seized by the idea of correct and healthy eating. At that time, the brothers produced breakfast cereals made from soaked corn kernels passed through rollers. These breakfasts were more like raw dough, torn into pieces. They were helped by an accident in which this body was placed on a hot baking sheet and forgotten about it. Thus, the first breakfast cereals were created. This idea was picked up by many companies, and the cereal was mixed with nuts. Fruits and other products.

For example, corn flakes are rich in vitamins A and E, while rice flakes contain amino acids important for our body. Included oatmeal includes phosphorus and magnesium. But, unfortunately, not all breakfasts are good for the human body; some of them can be harmful.
Dry breakfasts include snacks, muesli, and cereal. Snacks are balls and pads made from rice, corn, barley, oats and rye. different sizes. These grains are steamed under high pressure, in order to preserve maximum quantity useful microelements and vitamins. However, with additional heat treatment, for example, by frying, the product loses its benefits. When you add nuts, honey, fruits, and chocolate to the flakes, you get muesli. For the production of snacks, ground flakes, as well as various additions to them, are fried. Children often love snacks, so they are produced in the form of different figures. Some manufacturers add various fillings to snacks, including chocolate. However, after adding sugar and various additives to breakfast, it will no longer be very useful. In this regard, to maintain health and figure, it is better to choose unprocessed cereal or muesli with fruit and honey.
Why are breakfast cereals harmful?
The most harmful product are snacks, since their preparation destroys a larger amount of useful substances. One serving of such breakfasts contains only about two grams of fiber, while our body needs up to 30 grams per day dietary fiber. It is healthier to eat unprocessed cereals that have not been processed heat treatment. This product will fill the body with the necessary amount of fiber. Snacks are harmful due to frying as they become high in calories and fat.
It is necessary to take into account the high calorie content of breakfast cereals. For example, the calorie content of stuffed pillows is about 400 calories, and chocolate balls are 380 calories. Cakes and sweets have a similar calorie content, and this is not healthy. Various additives included in breakfast cereals cause more harm. That is why buy raw cereal for children, without various additives. Add honey, nuts or dried fruits to your breakfast cereal and avoid products that contain sugar substitutes.
Wheat, rice and cornflakes They are very easy to digest because they contain simple carbohydrates. This fills the body with energy and provides nutrition to the brain, but excessive consumption of these carbohydrates leads to excess weight.
Heat-treated breakfast cereals are very harmful. During the cooking process, fat or oil used during the cooking process can cause problems of cardio-vascular system and increased cholesterol levels.
