Warning
1. This Kyocera LCD module has been specifically designed for use only in
electronic devices and industrial machines in the area of audio control,
office automation, industrial control, home appliances, etc. The module
should not be used in applications where the highest level of safety and
reliability are required and module failure or malfunction of such module
results in physical harm or loss of life, as well as enormous damage or loss.
Such fields of applications include, without limitation, medical, aerospace,
communications infrastructure, atomic energy control. Kyocera expressly
disclaims any and all liability resulting in any way to the use of the module
in such applications.
2. Customer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Kyocera harmless
from and against any and all actions, claims, damages, liabilities,
awards, costs, and expenses, including legal expenses, resulting from or
arising out of Customer's use, or sale for use, or Kyocera modules in
applications.
Caution
1. Kyocera shall have the right, which Customer hereby acknowledges, to
immediately scrap or destroy tooling for Kyocera modules for which no
Purchase Orders have been received from the Customer in a two-year period.

1) Operating temperature means a temperature which operation shall be guaranteed. Since display
performance is evaluated at 25°C, another temperature range should be confirmed.
2) Temp. = -30°C<48h , Temp. = 80°C<168h
Store LCD at normal temperature/humidity. Keep them free from vibration and shock.
An LCD that is kept at a low or a high temperature for a long time can be defective due to
other conditions, even if the low or high temperature satisfies the standard.
(Please refer to “Precautions for Use” for details.)

8-2. Input Data Signals and Display position on the screen
9. Design guidance for analog touch panel
9-1. Electrical (In customer's design, please remember the following considerations.)
1) Do not use the current regulated circuit.
2) Keep the current limit with top and bottom layer. (Please refer to “Electrical absolute
maximum ratings” for details.)
3) Analog touch panel can not sense two points touching separately.
4) A contact resistance is appeared at the touch point between top and bottom layer. After this
resistance has stable read of the touch panel position data.
5) Because noise of inverter or peripheral circuits may interfere signal of touch panel itself it is
necessary to design carefully in advance to avoid these noise problem.
9-2. Software
1) Do the "User Calibration".
2) "User Calibration" may be needed with long term using. Include "User Calibration" menu in
your software.
3) When drawing a line with a stylus, there may be a slight discontinuity when the stylus passes
over a spacer-dot. If necessary, please provide a compensation feature within your software.
9-3. Mounting on display and housing bezel
1) Do not use an adhesive tape to bond it on the front of touch panel and hang it to the housing
bezel.
2) Never expand the touch panel top layer (PET-film) like a balloon by internal air pressure. The
life of the touch panel will be extremely short.
3) If a dew will be on the heat-sealed area or exposed traces at the end of a flexible tail, the
migration of silver can occur. This will cause sometimes a short circuit.
4) Must maintain a gap between inside of bezel and touch panel to avoid malfunction or electrode
damage of touch panel.

11. Warranty
11-1. Incoming inspection
Please inspect the LCD within one month after your receipt.
11-2. Production warranty
Kyocera warrants its LCD’s for a period of 12 months from the ship date. Kyocera shall, by mutual
agreement, replace or re-work defective LCD’s that are shown to be Kyocera’s responsibility.

12. Precautions for use
12-1. Installation of the LCD
1) The LCD shall be installed so that there is no pressure on the LSI chips.
2) Since this product is wide viewing product, occurrence level of in-plane unevenness by the external
stress is different compared to current normal viewing product. So there is a possibility that
in-plane unevenness will be occurred by over twist, strain giving by attaching to LCD, and over
pressure to touch panel. Please be careful of stress when designing the housing.
12-2. 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.
12-3. 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) Please select the best display pattern based on your evaluation because flicker, lines or
nonuniformity or unevenness can be visible depending on display patterns.
12-4. 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.
12-5. 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) Do not push or rub the touch panel's surface with hard to sharp objects such as knives, or the touch
panel may be scratched.
3) When the touch panel is dirty, gently wipe the surface with a soft cloth, sometimes
moistened by mild detergent or alcohol. If a hazardous chemical is dropped on the touch
panel by mistake, wipe it off right away to prevent human contact.
4) The touch panel is made of glass. It may break when dropped, or vibrated excessively. Usually
there is a film on the surface of the glass which would prevent broken glass from scattering, but
nevertheless handle it carefully during assembly and treat it gently during use.
5) Always keep the LCD free from condensation during testing. Condensation may permanently spot
or stain the polarizer.
6) Do not disassemble LCD because it will result in damage.
7) This Kyocera LCD 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.
8) 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.
9) Liquid crystal may leak when the LCD 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.

The LCD is tested in circumstances in which there is no condensation.
The reliability test is not an out-going inspection.
The result of the reliability test is for your reference purpose only.
The reliability test is conducted only to examine the LCD's capability.
