(7) Touching the display area and contact terminals with bare hands and contaminating
them are prohibited, because the stain on the display area and poor insulation
between terminals are often cause by being touched by bare hands.
(there are some cosmetics detrimental to polarizers.)
(8) In general the quality of glass is fragile so that it tends to be cracked or chipped
in handling, specially on its periphery. Because be careful not to give it sharp
shock caused by dropping down, etc.
11.6 CAUTION FOR OPERATION
(1) It is an indispensable condition to drive LCDs within the specified voltage limit
since the higher voltage than the limit causes the shorter LCD life. An
electrochemical reaction due to direct current causes LCDs undesirable deterioration,
so that the use of direct current driver should be avoided.
(2) Response time will be extremely delayed at lower temperature than the operating
temperature range and on the other hand at higher temperature LCDs show dark
bull color in them. However those phenomena do not mean malfunction or out of
order with LCDs which will come back in the specified operating temperature range.
(3) If the display area is pushed hard during operation, some font will be abnormally
display but it resumes normal condition after turning off once.
(4) A slight dew depositing on terminals is a cause for electrochemical reaction
resulting in terminal open circuit. Usage under the relative condition of 40℃
50%RH or less is required.
11.7 STORAGE
In case of storing for a long period of time (for instance, for years) for the
purpose of replacement use, the following ways are recommended.
(1) Storage in a polyethylene bag with the opening sealed so as not to enter fresh
air outside in it, and with no desiccant.
(2) Placing in a dark place where neither exposure to direct sunlight nor light is,
keeping temperature in the range from 0℃ to 35℃.
(3) Storing with no touch on polarizer surface by anything else. (It is recommended to
store them as they have been contained in the inner container at the time of
delivery from us.)
11.8 SAFETY
(1) It is recommendable to crash damage or unnecessary LCDs into pieces and wash
off liquid crystal by either of solvents such as acetone and ethanol, which should
be burned up later.
(2) When any liquid leaked out of a damage glass cell comes in contact with your
hands, please wash it off well with soap and water.
