Precautions

Cautions for handling the liquid crystal panel
Do not expose the liquid crystal panel to direct sunlight.
• Storage temperature range: –40°C to +85°C
+85°C –40°C
–40°C to +85°C
During the summer, temperatures can reach as high as 100°C.
When the liquid crystal panel reaches high temperatures or low temperatures, chemical changes occur inside the panel, which may cause it to malfunction.
The red spots, blue spots and green spots on the panel surface are a normal characteristic of liquid crystal panels, and not a problem.
Spots
Do not drop the liquid crystal panel or strike it sharply.
When the temperature is very cold or very hot, the image may not appear clearly or may move slowly. The image may not be synchronized with the sound or the image quality may decline in such environments. Note that this is not a malfunction or problem.
• Usage temperature range: –20°C to +60°C
Note:
The liquid crystal panel is built with very high precision technology and has at least
99.99% effective image pixels. Be aware that on 0.01% of the panel there may be missing or constantly lit pixels.
