Quali cacciaviti servono per aprire la PS4?
To properly clean and maintain your PlayStation 4, it is important to have the necessary equipment on hand. You will need a 3mm crosshead screwdriver and a T8 or T9 screwdriver. Additionally, having a clean cloth made of deerskin, suede, or antistatic microfiber in your external cleaning kit is essential. These types of cloths are perfect for cleaning glossy surfaces and preventing dust buildup.
Cleaning the PlayStation 4
If you have a can of compressed air, insert the straw for more effective cleaning. Before doing so, it is recommended to spray a few bursts of air away from the PS4 to ensure there is no liquid inside. Now, you can use the compressed air to blow short bursts of air around your PS4, effectively removing dust.
