Quick Tips: Clean your DS Lite screen Video Transcript

>> hi, I'm Tom Merritt on CNet.com with a quick tip for cleaning up your Nintendo DS or DS Light. Now, with a touch screen, it's tempting to not use the stylus and just press it, that means you get some prints all over. So how do you clean it off? Well, don't use any solvents, don't use any Windex or anything like that. Take a nice soft cloth, maybe something like an eyeglass cleaning cloth like this one, get it in regular old water, no soap, and then, just rub it across the screen gently. Once you've got it wet and clean, take the drive part of your towel and clean it up. Yeah, that looks much better doesn't it? I'm Tom Merritt, CNet.com. ^M00:00:40 [ Music ]
