8.1 HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

(1) The module should be assembled into the system firmly by using every mounting hole. Be careful not to twist or bend the module. (2) While assembling or installing modules, it can only be in the clean area. The dust and oil may cause electrical short or damage the polarizer. (3) Use fingerstalls or soft gloves in order to keep display clean during the incoming inspection and assembly process. (4) Do not press or scratch the surface harder than a HB pencil lead on the panel because the polarizer is very soft and easily scratched. (5) If the surface of the polarizer is dirty, please clean it by some absorbent cotton or soft cloth. Do not use Ketone type materials (ex. Acetone), Ethyl alcohol, Toluene, Ethyl acid or Methyl chloride. It might permanently damage the polarizer due to chemical reaction. (6) Wipe off water droplets or oil immediately. Staining and discoloration may occur if they left on panel for a long time. (7) If the liquid crystal material leaks from the panel, it should be kept away from the eyes or mouth. In case of contacting with hands, legs or clothes, it must be washed away thoroughly with soap. (8) Protect the module from static electricity, it may cause damage to the C-MOS Gate Array IC. (9) Do not disassemble the module. (10) Do not pull or fold the LED wire. (11) Pins of I/F connector should not be touched directly with bare hands.

8.2 STORAGE PRECAUTIONS

(1) High temperature or humidity may reduce the performance of module. Please store LCD module within the specified storage conditions. (2) It is dangerous that moisture come into or contacted the LCD module, because the moisture may damage LCD module when it is operating. (3) It may reduce the display quality if the ambient temperature is lower than 10 ºC. For example, the response time will become slowly, and the starting voltage of LED will be higher than the room temperature.

8.3 OPERATION PRECAUTIONS

(1) Do not pull the I/F connector in or out while the module is operating. (2) Always follow the correct power on/off sequence when LCD module is connecting and operating. This can prevent the CMOS LSI chips from damage during latch-up. (3) The startup voltage of Backlight is approximately 1000 Volts. It may cause electrical shock while assembling with converter. Do not disassemble the module or insert anything into the Backlight unit.

Version 2.0 15 May 2013 35 / 37 The copyright belongs to INNOLUX. Any unauthorized use is prohibited. Appendix. SYSTEM COVER DESIGN NOTICE 1. Design gap A between panel & any components on s ystem cover Definition a). Sufficient gap between panel & system is a must for preventing from backpack or pogo test fail. b). Zero gap from panel's maximum thickness boundary to any components, foreign objects, wire, cable or extrusion on system cover inner surface is forbidden.

2 Design gap B1 & B2 between panel & protrusions

2.0mm min. gap is recommended between panel & protrusions for preventing from shock related failures. 3 Design gap C between system front bezel & panel s urface.

Version 2.0 15 May 2013 36 / 37 The copyright belongs to INNOLUX. Any unauthorized use is prohibited. Definition a). Sufficient gap between system front bezel & panel surface is a must for preventing from pooling or glass broken. b). Zero gap or interference is forbidden. 4 Design gap D1 & D2 between system front bezel & P CB Assembly. Definition a). Sufficient gap between system front bezel & PCB assembly is a must for preventing from abnormal display after backpack test, hinge test, twist test or pogo test. b). Zero gap or interference is forbidden.

5 Interference examination of antenna cable and Web Cam wire

a). Antenna cable or WebCam wire overlap with panel outline is forbidden for preventing from abnormal display & white spot after backpack test, hinge test, twist test or pogo test. b). Antenna cable or WebCam wire bypass panel outline is recommended.

6 System inner surface examination

C WebCam Wire WebCam Wire

Version 2.0 15 May 2013 37 / 37 The copyright belongs to INNOLUX. Any unauthorized use is prohibited. Definition a). Burr at logo edge, step, protrusion or PCB board will easily cause white spot or glass broken. b). Keeping flat surface underneath backlight is recommended.
