NOTICE
Unintentional action possible
Do not carry out several operations simultaneously. You may otherwise trigger an

Damage to the keyboard possible
Using hard instruments to press the keys considerably reduces the service life of the key
mechanism.
Always use your fingers to operate the keys of your HMI device.
