15. Precautions for use
15-1. Installation of the LCD
1) The LCD module has a grounding hole. Please ground the module to prevent noise and to stabilize
its performance as circumstances demand.
2) A transparent protection plate shall be added to protect the LCD and its polarizer.
3) The LCD shall be installed so that there is no pressure on the LSI chips.
4) The LCD shall be installed flat, without twisting or bending.
5) Please design the housing window so that its edges are between the active area and the effective
area of the LCD screen.
6) A transparent protection sheet is attached to the polarizer. Please remove the protection film slowly
before use, paying attention to static electricity.
15-2. Static electricity
1) Since CMOS ICs are mounted directly onto the LCD glass, protection from static electricity is
required.
2) Workers should use body grounding. Operator should wear ground straps.
15-3. LCD operation
1) The LCD shall be operated within the limits specified. Operation at values outside of these limits
may shorten life, and/or harm display images.
2) Adjust the "Supply voltage for LCD driving (VCONT)" to obtain optimum viewing angle and contrast
ratio.
15-4. Storage
1) The LCD shall be stored within the temperature and humidity limits specified.
Store in a dark area, and protect the LCD from direct sunlight or fluorescent light.
2) Always store the LCD so that it is free from external pressure onto it.
15-5. Usage
1) DO NOT store in a high humidity environment for extended periods. Polarizer degradation bubbles,
and/or peeling off of the polarizer may result.
2) The front polarizer is easily scratched or damaged. Prevent touching it with any hard material, and
from being pushed or rubbed.
3) The LCD screen may be cleaned by wiping the screen surface with a soft cloth or cotton pad using a
little Ethanol.
4) Water may cause damage or discoloration of the polarizer. Clean condensation or moisture from any
source immediately.
5) Always keep the LCD free from condensation during testing. Condensation may permanently spot
or stain the polarizer.
6) Do not pull the LED lead wires and do not bend the root of the wires. Housing should be designed
to protect LED lead wires from external stress.
7) Do not disassemble LCD module because it will result in damage.
8) This Kyocera LCD module has been specifically designed for use in general electronic devices, but
not for use in a special environment such as usage in an active gas.Hence, when the LCD is
supposed to be used in a special environment, evaluate the LCD thoroughly beforehand and do not
expose the LCD to chemicals such as an active gas.
9) Please do not use solid-base image pattern for long hours because a temporary afterimage may
appear. We recommend using screen saver etc. in cases where a solid-base image pattern must
be used.
10) Liquid crystal may leak when the module is broken. Be careful not to let the fluid go into your eyes
and mouth. In the case the fluid touches your body; rinse it off right away with water and soap.
