3. e-Set precautions

Electromagnetic resonance is used to detect 

the e-Pieces on your e-Board. Strong signal 

transmitters generated close to the e-Board area 

may cause spontaneous and incorrect piece 

detection, so called 

“ghost pieces”.

 

If detection issues occur when using your e-Board, 

this may be because your board is placed too 

close to plasma screens, LCD monitors, speakers, 

power adapters or other similar devices.

Metal surfaces or objects near or underneath your 

e-Board or underneath the table may reduce the 

sensitivity of the e-Board and can cause detection 

errors. Please do not place the e-Board on a metal 

table or a table with a metal construction beneath 

the table top.

4. Maintenance and support

For warranty purposes and future updates please 

register your board on our website. For product 

registration go to the support section of the DGT 

web site and select 

“Register your Product”

The e-Board top is finished with a high quality 

wooden surface. When treated with care it will 

give you many years of trouble-free performance. 

To clean the board a lightly moistened soft cloth 

should be used. Do not use abrasive cleaning 

liquids.

If you have any questions that are not covered 

by this manual please consult the FAQ’s on the 

support section of our website. If you are unable 

to find a solution in the FAQ section, feel free to 

contact the DGT support department.

5. Warranty conditions

This e-Board complies with our highest quality 

standards. If, despite our care in choosing 

components, materials, production or transport, 

your e-Board shows a hardware defect in the first 

two years after purchase, please contact your 

retailer. You may also contact the DGT support 

department for assistance.

The warranty is only valid if the e-Board has 

been used in a reasonable and prudent manner 

as intended to be used. The warranty does not 

apply if the e-Board has been misused or if any 

unauthorized repair attempts or modifications 

have been undertaken without prior express 

written consent of DGT support or one of the DGT 

authorized service centres. A list of Service Centres 

can be found on the DGT website.
