CAUTION

Precautions on handling of the LCD panel

•Do not leave the monitor on the dashboard with the LCD panel facing upwards. (Range of storage temperature: -20˚C to +80˚C)

When the temperature is high or low, chemical changes occur in the LCD panel, resulting in damage to the monitor.

•Since the LCD panel has been specially processed, the fingerprints will remain on the panel and stand out if you touch the panel. Avoid touching the panel as much as possible. Also avoid pushing the panel.

•When temperature becomes low, the picture does not appear or sometimes it takes time to appear.

On occasion, the picture motion seems to be different from that at normal temperature and the picture quality deteriorates. These phenomena are not a malfunction. (Range of operating temperature: 0˚C to +40˚C)

•On the panel red dots, blue dots and green dots are found. This is peculiar to the LCD panel and it is not a malfunction.

[The LCD panel has been designed and manufactured using a highly developed precision technology and has a 99.99 % or more effective pixels. However, note that 0.01 % of pixels are defective and always light.]
