Clean your Clover device
Keep your Clover device clean to make it work better, last longer, and stay safer for your employees and customers.
Clean your device with the right supplies
All Clover product materials have been tested to be safe from many chemicals against staining and degradation. This includes all the glass, aluminum, and plastic parts. Even with these strong materials in place, the device can still be damaged by using the wrong cleaning product.
Your Clover touchscreen glass has an anti-fingerprint, oil-repellent coating, so you’ll want to take extra care when you clean the glass. For optimum sterilization, clean surfaces that customers and employees touch at least once a day.
Before you clean your device
-
Turn off the device.
-
Unplug it from the power source.
Clean your device
-
Use only a soft, lint-free cloth, like a microfiber cloth.
-
Moisten the cloth with water to wipe off dirt and smudges.
-
Moisten the cloth with 70% - 90% strength Isopropyl alcohol to disinfect the unit and the touchscreen. (You need at least the 70% solution to disinfect for the COVID-19 coronavirus.)
-
Do not spray anything directly on the device; spray on the cloth.
-
Take extra care to avoid getting alcohol or water into or around openings, buttons, or seams, and areas where cards are inserted, tapped, or swiped. If you need to clean those areas, make sure the cloth you use is dry.
-
Don’t use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
-
Avoid too much moisture of any kind.
Important: Allow the unit to dry before switching it on again.
