Care and cleaning
Here’s how to keep your Surface looking and working great.
Touchscreen care
Scratches, finger grease, dust, chemicals, and ultraviolet light can affect the performance of the touchscreen.
Here are a few things you can do to help protect the screen:
Clean frequently. Wipe the touchscreen with a soft, lint-free cloth to clean it. You can dampen the cloth with water or an eyeglass cleaner, but don’t apply liquids directly to the touchscreen. Also don’t use window cleaner or other chemical cleaners.
Keep it covered. Close the Cover when you’re in transit or not using Surface. If you don’t have a Cover, you can use a sleeve to protect the touchscreen (sleeves are available at Surface.com/Accessories ).
Keep it out of the sun. Don’t leave Surface in direct sunlight for an extended amount of time. Ultraviolet light and excessive heat can damage the touchscreen.
Cover care
You can clean the Cover with a lint-free cloth, dampened with mild soap and water. If the spine or the magnetic connections get dirty, you can clean them with isopropyl alcohol (also called rubbing alcohol).
Battery care
Operating temperature. Surface is designed to work between 32°F and 95°F (or 0°C to 35°C). Lithiumion batteries are sensitive to high temperatures, so keep your Surface out of the sun and don’t leave it in a hot car.
Recharge anytime. The battery doesn’t need to be empty or low before you recharge. You can recharge the battery whenever you’d like. However, it’s best to let the battery run down to 10% at least once per month before you recharge it.
