Safety Precautions
In the event that the screen is damaged or the liquid 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 wa-
ter. 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 pre-

display can be viewed most conveniently.
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 mod-
ule because any impact can adversely affect the perform-

are sharp, so use caution to avoid in-
jury.
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 solied, 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 surface.
4. Leaving water or other fluids on the panel screen for an
extended period of time can result in discoloration 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.
