10 Handling of modules
10-1. Inserting the FPC into its connector and pulling it out
1) Be sure to turn off the power supply and the signals when inserting or disconnecting the cable.
2) Please insert for too much stress not to join FPC in the case of insertion of FPC.
10-2. About handling of FPC
1) The bending radius of the FPC should be more than 1.4mm, and it should be bent evenly.
2) Do not dangle the LCD module by holding the FPC, or do not give any stress to it.
10-3. Mounting of the module
1) The module should be held on to the plain surface. Do not give any warping or twisting stress to
the module.
2) Please consider that GND can ground a modular metal portion etc. so that static electricity is not
charged to a module.
10-4. Cautions in assembly / Handling pre cautions
As the polarizer can be easily scratched, be most careful in handling it.
1) Work environments in assembly.
Since removing laminator may causes electrostatic charge that tends to attract
dust, the
following work environment would be desired.
a) Floor: Conductive treatment having 1MΩ resistance onto floor’s tile
b) The room free from dust coming from outdoor environment, and put an adhesive mat
at entrances.
c) Humidity from 50% to 70% and temperature from 15°C to 27°C are desirable.
d) Worker should ware conductive shoes, conductive fatigue, conductive glove and
earth wrist band.
2) Instruction for working
a) Wind direction of an antistatic blower should slightly downward to properly blow the module.
The distance between the blower and the module should
be the best distance of use blower. Also, pay attention to the direction of the module.
b) To prevent polarizer from scratching, adhesive tape (cellophane tape) should be
stuck at the part of laminator sheet, which is closed to blower. [See the above]
c) Pull slowly adhesive tape to peel the laminator off, with spending more than 5 second.
d) The module without laminator should be moved to the next process to prevent
adhesion of dust.

3) How the remove dust on the polarizer
a) Blow out dust by the use of an N2 blower with antistatic measures taken. Use of
an ionized air Gun is recommendable.
b) When the panel surface is soiled, wipe it with soft cloth.
4) In the case of the module’s metal part (shield case) is stained, wipe it with a piece of dry, soft cloth.
If rather difficult, give a breath on the metal part to clean better.
5) If water dropped, etc. remains stuck on the polarizer for a long time, it is apt to get discolored or cause
stains. Wipe it immediately.
6) As a glass substrate is used for the TFT-LCD panel, if it is dropped on the floor or hit by something hard,
it may be broken or chipped off.
7) Since CMOS LSI is used in this module, take care of static electricity and take the human earth into
consideration when handling.
10-5. Others
1) Regarding storage of LCD modules, avoid storing them at direct sunlight-situation.
2) If stored at temperatures below the rated values, the inner liquid crystal may freeze, causing cell
destruction. At temperatures exceeding the rated values for storage, the liquid crystal may become
isotropic liquid, making it no longer possible to come back to its original state in some cases.
3) If the LCD is broken, do not drink liquid crystal in the mouth. If the liquid crystal adheres to a hand or
foot or to clothes, immediately cleanse it with soap.
4) If a water drop or dust adheres to the polarizer, it is apt to cause deterioration. Wipe it immediately.
5) Be sure to observe other caution items for ordinary electronic parts and components.

Check items
In the standard condition, there shall be no practical problems that may affect the display function.
12. Display Grade
The standard regarding the grade of color LCD displaying modules should be based on the delivery
inspection standard.
13. Delivery Form
13-1. Carton storage conditions
1) Carton piling-up: Max 8 rows
2) Environments
Temperature: 040°C
Humidity: 65% RH or less (at 40°C)
There should be no dew condensation even at a low temperature and high humidity.
3) Packing form: 15. LCD module packing carton
Cartons are weak against damp, and they are apt to be smashed easily due to the compressive
pressure applied when piled up. The above environmental conditions of temperature and humidity are
set in consideration of reasonable pile-up for storage.

14. Lot No. marking
The lot No. will be printed on every module by ink-jet. The indication style is shown as below drawing.
Processing place code (Q, L, etc.)
Lot No = Production year(07~) + mouth(A~L) + Serial No(000001~)
Model No + Parts code ( - or A )

16. Others
1 Disassembling the module can cause permanent damage and you should be strictly avoided.
2 Please be careful that you don’t keep the screen displayed fixed pattern image for a long time,
since retention may occur.
3 If you pressed down a liquid crystal display screen with your finger and so on, the alignment disorder
of liquid crystal will occur. And then It will become display fault.
Therefore, be careful not to touch the screen directly, and to consider not stressing to it.
4 If any problem arises regarding the items mentioned in this specification sheet or otherwise, it should be
discussed and settled mutually in a good faith for remedy and/or improvement.
