1.0 Handling Precautions
1) Do not scratch the front polarier of panel. The front polarier is easily damaged
2) Be sure to turn off power supply when inserting and disconnecting from input connector.
3) Wipe off water drop immediately. Contacted with water in a long time may cause discoloration or spots.
4) Use absorbent cotton or other kind of soft cloth to wipe when the panel is dusty.
5) Do not drop it on hard surface. The face of panel is fragile
6) Since CMOS LSI is used in this module, take care of static electricity and insure human earth when
handling.
7) Do not open nor modify the Module Assembly.
8) Do not press the reflector sheet at the back of the module to any directions.
M170EP01V.0
9) The TFT module will be damaged if the center of the CCFL reflector is pressed heavily.
10) Keep the connector interface straight during the period of inserting and disconnecting it.
11) Do not twist nor bend the TFT Module even momentary. At designing the enclosure, it should be taken into
consideration that no bending/twisting forces are applied to the TFT module from outside. Otherwise the TFT
module may be damaged.
