Hello DoctorTanvir.


Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. We see that you would like to know how to properly clean an iPad Smart Keyboard. We will be glad to assist.


Please see the following:


"iPad Magic Keyboard

To clean your Magic Keyboard, first remove it from the iPad. Use a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth. Wipe the front and the inside with a soft, lint-free cloth. You may use a 70 percent isopropyl alcohol wipe or Clorox Disinfecting Wipes. Avoid getting moisture in any opening, and don't submerge your Magic Keyboard in any cleaning agents. Don't use window cleaners, household cleaners, aerosol sprays, solvents, ammonia, abrasives, or cleaners containing hydrogen peroxide to clean this product.

Avoid prolonged contact with other materials, as color transfer may occur."
