I found this information online but am not sure if it useful to 
you:

Cleaning the Display

The cleaning mode allows you to clean your braille display of 
debris.  To
enter cleaning mode, turn on your PAC Mate, simultaneously hold 
down the two
routing buttons on the right end of the display and connect the 
USB cable to
the PAC Mate.  Then release both buttons.  When you do this, all 
pins of each
cell should display.

Use a soft lint-free cloth dampened with 90% isopropyl alcohol or
pre-moistened wipes used for cleaning electronic devices and 
gently wipe the
pins.  No other cleaning agent should be used.  Disconnect the 
cable to recess
the pins and gently wipe the display again.  It may be necessary 
to repeat
this procedure 5 or 6 times to clean your display properly.
