    Do not force the module into place, because stress can affect its performance. Also, the panel’s surface is easily scarred, so be carefully when handling it. TECRA A8 /Satellite Pro A120 Maintenance Manual (960-573) [CONFIDENTIAL]...
  • Page 348 4. If water or other liquid is left on the panel’s surface for a long period, it can change the screen’s tint or stain it. Be sure to quickly wipe off any liquid. [CONFIDENTIAL] TECRA A8 /Satellite Pro A120 Maintenance Manual (960-573)
  • Page 349 6. CMOS-LSI circuits are used in the module, so guard against damage from electrostatic discharge. Be sure to wear a wrist or ankle ground when handling the module. TECRA A8 /Satellite Pro A120 Maintenance Manual (960-573) [CONFIDENTIAL]...
  • Page 350 7. Do not expose the module to direct sunlight or strong ultraviolet rays for long periods. 8. Do not store the module at temperatures below specifications.
