1. Check the case material and manufacturer care notes. This routine is not for leather, fabric or other cases that require special methods.
2. Carefully remove the iPhone and keep the handset away from moisture while you clean the empty case.
3. Slightly dampen a clean, soft, lint-free cloth with water and wring it out. Do not spray liquid or cleaners directly onto the case.
4. Gently wipe the inside and outside, including edges and button cutouts. Avoid abrasive pads or hard brushes.
5. For these case types, Apple warns against window cleaners, household cleaners, aerosol sprays, solvents, ammonia, abrasives and cleaners containing hydrogen peroxide.
6. Wipe with a dry lint-free cloth and make sure no moisture remains before reinstalling the iPhone. Consider replacing a case that stays sticky, cracked or deformed.
