Unplug or remove any electronics from the mousepad (if applicable)
Remove dust and loose debris by shaking gently or wiping with a dry microfiber cloth
Spot-clean stains with a small amount of mild dish soap or gentle detergent mixed with lukewarm water
Use a soft cloth or sponge to dab the stained area (do not scrub aggressively)
For full cleaning, fill a basin with lukewarm water and add a small amount of mild detergent
Submerge the mousepad if the label allows; otherwise, use a damp cloth method
Gently wash with light hand pressure using a cloth or soft brush (avoid harsh scrubbing)
Rinse thoroughly with clean lukewarm water until no soap remains

Air-dry flat on a towel or drying rack in a well-ventilated area
Avoid direct sunlight and high heat (do not use a dryer)

If the mousepad has a stitched edge or foam backing, allow extra drying time
If the pad has a rubber backing and the label allows, keep it flat during drying to prevent curling
