HANDLING THE LCD MODULE
Safety Precautions
In the event that the screen is damaged or the liq-
uid crystal (fluid) leaks, do not breathe in or drink
this fluid. Also, never touch this fluid.
Such actions could cause toxicity or skin irritation.
If this fluid should enter the mouth, rinse the mouth
thoroughly with water. If the fluid should contact the
skin or clothing, wipe off with alcohol, etc., and
rinse thoroughly with water. If the fluid should enter
the eyes, immediately rinse the eyes thoroughly
with running water.
Precautions for Handling the LCD
Module
The LCD module can easily be damaged during
disassembly or reassembly; therefore, always
observe the following precautions when handling
the module.
1. When attaching the LCD
module to the LCD cover,
position it appropriately
and fasten at the position
where the display can be
viewed most conve-
niently.
2. Carefully align the holes at all four corners of the LCD
module with the corresponding holes in the LCD cover
and fasten with screws. Do not strongly push on the
module because any impact can adversely affect the
performance. Also use caution when handling the
polarized screen because it can easily be damaged.
The metal edges of the LCD
module are sharp, so use cau-
tion to avoid injury.
CAUTION
3. If the panel surface becomes
soiled, wipe with cotton or a
soft cloth. If this does not
remove the soiling, breathe
on the surface and then wipe
again. If the panel surface is
extremely soiled, use a CRT
cleaner as a cleaner. Wipe off the panel surface by
drop the cleaner on the cloth. Do not drop the cleaner
on the panel. Pay attention not to scratch the panel sur-
face.
4. Leaving water or other fluids on
the panel screen for an extended
period of time can result in discol-
oration or stripes. Immediately
remove any type of fluid from the
screen.
5. Glass is used in the panel, so do not
drop or strike with hard objects.
Such actions can damage the panel.
6. CMOS-LSI circuitry is used in the
LCD module, so avoid damage due
to static electricity. When handling
the module, use a wrist ground or
anchor ground.
7. Do not expose the LCD
module to direct sun-
light or strong ultravio-
let rays for an extended
period of time.
8. Do not store the LCD
module below the tem-
perature conditions described in the specifications.
Failure to do so could result in freezing of the liquid
crystal due to cold air or loss of resilience or other
damage.
9. Do not disassemble the
LCD module. Such
actions could result in
improper operation.
10.When transporting the
LCD module, do not use
packing containing
epoxy resin (amine) or silicon resin (alcohol or oxim).
The gas generated by these materials can cause loss of
polarity.
