If you’re like most gamers, your original PlayStation 4 is probably a little dusty and needs a good cleaning. Here are four easy steps to help you get the job done.

  1. Remove any loose objects from around the console. This includes cables, power cords, and any other small pieces of hardware that may be blocking airflow.
  2. Open up the console and remove all of the internal components. This includes the motherboard, hard drive, and any other removable parts.
  3. Wipe down all of the surfaces with a clean cloth or vacuum cleaner using a low-pile setting. Make sure to clean behind all of the ports and around all of the screws on the console’s exterior.
  4. Reinstall all of the internal components and reattach any cables before closing up the console back up in its original location. Now your PlayStation 4 is ready for use! ..
