How to SAFELY Handle the VM Series Display
How NOT to Handle the VM Series Display
1. Do NOT lift the display by its bag. The bag tears easily and will not support the weight of
the display.
2. Do NOT apply force to the front of the LCD.
CAUTION:
If the display must be temporarily stored out of its original packaging, do not let it
stand at an angle of more than 10°.

Thermal Expansion
Thermal expansion occurs as the LCD displays become warmer during operation. If the
distance between the LCD displays is insufficient, the displays may push against each other as
they thermally expand and become deformed, a condition referred to as pinching. As a general
rule, Planar recommends a gap of at least one business card's thickness (approximately
0.375mm) between panels when installing LCD displays. If pinching is a concern prior to
installing or when observing pinching after installation, increase the gap distance to the
thickness of at least two business cards (approximately 0.75mm).

The display should always be vertical. Lift the unit with two
(2) people using the handles and the bottom display edge.
Take care to not wrap your hands around to the display front
– risking panel damage.
Installing the Display
After mounting the
panels, remove only the
breakaway section of
the protective plastic
tab from the top of the
panel, if present.
CAUTION:
Do not
remove any other
portion of the top of the
panel, as this may
severely damage the
display.
