Please pay attention to the followings when a Super-TFT module with a back-light unit is used,
handled and mounted.
10.1 Precaution to handling and mounting
(1) Applying strong force to a part of the module may cause partial deformation of frame or mold,
and cause damage to the display.
(2) The module should gently and firmly be held by both hands. Never hold by just one hand in order
to avoid any internal damage. Never drop or hit the module.
(3) The module should be installed with mounting holes at each corner of a module.
(4) Uneven force such as twisted stress should not be applied to a module when a module is mounted
on the cover case. The cover case must have sufficient strength so that external force can not be
transmitted directly to a module.
(5) It is recommended to leave a space between a module and a holding board of a module so that
partial force is not applied to a module.

(6) The edge of a cover case should be located inside more than 1mm from the edge of a module front
frame.
(7) A transparent protective plate should be added on the display area of a module in order to protect
a polarizer and Super-TFT cell. The transparent protective plate should have sufficient strength
so that the plate can not touch a module by external force.
(8) Materials included acetic acid and choline should not be used for a cover case as well as other parts
and boards near a module. Acetic acid attacks a polarizer. Choline attacks electric circuits due to
electro-chemical reaction.
(9) The polarizer on a TFT cell should carefully be handled due to its softness, and should not be touched,
pushed or rubbed with glass, tweezers or anything harder than HB pencil lead. The surface of
a polarizer should not be touched and rubbed with bare hand, greasy clothes or dusty clothes.
(10) The surface of a polarizer should be gently wiped with absorbent cotton, chamois or other soft
materials slightly contained petroleum benzene when the surface becomes dirty. Normal-hexane
as cleaning chemicals is recommended in order to clean adhesives which fix front/rear polarizers
on a Super-TFT cell. Other cleaning chemicals such as acetone, toluen and alcohol should not be
used to clean adhesives because they cause chemical damage to a polarizer.
(11) Saliva or water drops should be immediately wiped off. Otherwise, the portion of a polarizer may
be deformed and its color may be faded.
(12) The module should not be opened or modified. It may cause not to operate properly.

(13) Metallic bezel of a module should not be handled with bare hand or dirty gloves. Otherwise,
color of a metallic frame may become dirty during its storage. It is recommended to use clean
soft gloves and clean finger stalls when a module is handled at incoming inspection process and
production (assembly) process.
(14) Lamp(CCFL) cables should not be pulled and held.
10.2 Precaution to operation
(1) The ambient temperature near the operated module should be satisfied with the absolute maximum
ratings. Unless it meets the specifications, sufficient cooling system should be adopted to system.
(2) The spike noise causes the mis-operation of a module. The level of spike noise should be as follows:
-200mV<=over- and under- shoot of VDD <= +200mV
VDD including over- and under- shoot should be satisfied with the absolute maximum ratings.
(3) Optical response time, luminance and chromaticity depend on the temperature of a Super-TFT
module. Response time and saturation time of CCFL luminance become longer at lower temperature
operation.
(4) Sudden temperature change may cause dew on and/or in the a module. Dew males damage to a
polarizer and/or electrical contacting portion. Dew causes fading of displayed quality.
(5) Fixed patterns displayed on a module for a long time may cause after-image. It will be recovered
soon.
(6) A module has high frequency circuits. Sufficient suppression to electromagnetic interference should
be done by system manufacturers. Grounding and shielding methods may be effective to minimize
the interference.
(7) Noise may be heard when a back-light is operated. If necessary, sufficient suppression should be
done by system manufacturers.
(8) The module should not be connected or removed while a main system works.
(9) Inserting or pulling I/F connectors causes any trouble when power supply and signal dates are
on-state.I/F connectors should be inserted and pulled after power supply and signal dates are
turned off.

10.3 Electrostatic discharge control
(1) Since a module consists of a Super-TFT cell and electronic circuits with CMOS-ICs, which are
very weak to electrostatic discharge, persons who are handling a module should be grounded
through adequate methods such as a list band. I/F connector pins should not be touched directly
with bare hands.
(2) Protection film for a polarizer on a module should be slowly peeled off so that the electrostatic
charge can be minimized.
10.4 Precaution to strong light exposure
(1) A module should not be exposed under strong light. Otherwise, characteristics of a polarizer and
color filter in a module may be degraded.
10.5 Precaution to storage
When modules for replacement are stored for a long time, following precautions should be taken care of:
(1) Modules should be stored in a dark place. It is prohibited to apply sunlight or fluorescent light
during storage. Modules should be stored at 0 to 35°C at normal humidity (60%RH or less).
(2) The surface of polarizers should not come in contact with any other object. It is recommended that
modules should be stored in the Hitachi's shipping box.

10.6 Precaution to handling protection film
(1) The protection film for polarizers should be pealed off slowly and carefully by persons who are
electrically grounded with adequate methods such as a list band. Besides, ionized air should be blown
over during peeling action. Dusts on a polarizer should be blown off by an ionized nitrogen gun and
so on.
(2) The protection film should be peeling off without rubbing it to the polarizer. Because, if the film is
rubbed together with the polarizer, since the film is attached to the polarizer with a small amount
of adhesive, the adhesive may remain on a polarizer.
(3) The module with protection film should be stored on the conditions explained in 10.5 (1). However ,
in case that the storage time is too long, adhesive may remain on a polarizer even after a protection
film is peeled off. Besides, in case that a module is stored at higher temperature and/or higher
humidity, adhesive may remain on a polarizer. The remained adhesive may cause non-uniformity
of display image.
(4) The adhesive can be removed easily with Normal-Hexane. The remained adhesive or its vestige on
the polarizer should be wiped off with absorbent cotton or other soft materials such as chamois
slightly contained Normal-Hexane.

10.7 Safety
(1) Since a Super-TFT cell and lamps are made of glass, handling to the broken module should be taken
care sufficiently in order not to be injured. Hands touched liquid crystal from a broken cell should be
washed sufficiently.
(2) The CFL inverter should be designed to include the function of output shutdown in case the
output overcurrent happen due to any backlight trouble.
The shutdown function should be assured to work in abnormal condition at the actual system.
(3) The module should not be taken apart during operation so that back-light drives by high voltage.
10.8 Environmental protection
(1) The Super-TFT module contains cold cathode fluorescent lamps. Please follow local ordinance or
regulations for its disposal.
(2) Flexible circuits board and printed circuits board used in a module contain small amount of lead.
Please follow local ordinance or regulations for its disposal.
10.9 Use restrictions and limitations
(1) This product is not authorized for use in life support devices or systems, military applications or
other applications which pose a significant risk of personal injury.
(2) In no event shall Hitachi, Ltd., be liable for any incidental, indirect or consequential damages in
connection with the installation or use of this product, even if informed of the possibility thereof
in advance. These limitations apply to all causes of action in the aggregate, including without
limitation breach of contact, breach of warranty, negligence, strict liability, misrepresentation and
other torts.
10.10 Others
(1) Electrical components which may not affect electrical performance are subjective to change without
notice because of their availability.
