A warm TV will absorb and hold onto dust. So you'll have a better cleaning result and also decrease your chances of damaging the TV, if you turn it off first and let it cool

Especially if you're going to use any liquid on the television, you want it to be cool first and make sure the liquid is completely wiped off / vaporized before turning the television back on. To prevent dirty spots on the TV. These are dark spots where liquid gets into the screen and get burned in, which in near impossible to remove without professional help

Cleaning equipment

Most important is a clean microfiber cloth. Otherwise it can contain dirt and make scratches

You might also want screen cleaning liquid, which can be found most places televisions are sold, or pure distilled water

Don't put unnecessary pressure on the TV

Modern TVs are more sensitive, than the old CRT TVs with a glass screen. So it's important you take extra care when cleaning and don't put unnecessary pressure on the screen

Cleaning dust

For just dust on the screen, a dry microfiber cloth or feather duster is enough

Just gently wipe over the screen, without putting to much pressure on the screen

Cleaning finger marks

For finger marks and more dirty marks. You want to add slight clean water to the microfiber cloth (I use drinking water) or screen cleaner spray. Cloth should not be drenched and avoid spraying straight on the TV

You can also use screen cleaning solution, that's made to clean screens. Avoid window wash and other strong chemicals. Modern TVs have a thin film on the screen and this will wear down if you use to strong chemicals

When you're done. Wipe away any excess liquid on the screen with a dry cloth and let the television rest a few minutes, to ensure its completely dry
