As I see, nothing oili and nothing leaving something anywhere should be 
used. I could have nearly destroyed my Braille display, Handy Tech Braille 
Star 80, by showering the display line with the evaporating liquid that 
I've mentioned, but fortunately it recovered from this.

But if there is somebody out there who uses or has experiences about the 
display mentioned, I would be more than happy if knowing what could have 
caused that I am not able to switch from PC mode to typing mode, or 
whatever it is called in the manual, where I am able to type in braille by 
using the 8 front panel keys. If the cleaning would have caused something, 
nothing should be able to work proparly, not even in PC mode.

But I've already got a service permission for my device from the authority 
that has given (may not be the correct word) it to me at the end of 2009.
