How to clean and disinfect your ClickShare Buttons

Article number: [3485] - Legacy code: [11328]

Applicable to

When cleaning ClickShare Buttons, we advise using either alcohol based, volatile cleaning solutions applied to dust-free cloth; or pre-induced into antibacterial cleaning wipes.

 
Important! The ClickShare Button should never be in use or powered when cleaning its surface.

Internal tests have indicated that regular use of disinfectant wipes or solutions to clean and disinfect the Buttons do not introduce discoloration or damage to the ClickShare Buttons. More information on the conducted test can be found below

When cleaning the Buttons with a wet cloth, keep in mind the Buttons are not waterproof. Because of this, we strongly advise the use of wipes and volatile solutions to disinfect the Buttons. Not cleaning the Button surface with a dust-free cloth (and using the Button with wet hands after applying disinfectant hand gel or other hand creams) can introduce dust and crème in the seams e.g. between the central button and the led ring, although these can also easily be cleaned. Avoid getting moisture in any openings at all times.

During previous tests, we know that the ClickShare Button withstands most commonly used products, but can show discoloration when regularly exposed to sunscreen or when exposed to aggressive insect repellents.

 
About the tests

Cleaning instructions given in this article have been validated through an in-house test on short/mid-term impact. In this test, the different Buttons and their different body parts were exposed to different chemicals commonly found in disinfectant gels, disinfectant wipes and disinfectant cleaning products, combined with a mechanical stress test. With these tests, we validate both discoloration and stress cracking effects when frequently exposed to cleaning and use on short/mid-term. Different disinfectant products were all volatile, alcohol based (70%) solutions based on either ethanol or isopropanol (2-propanol).
