LCD Screen notes:
•
•
•
If liquid crystal comes in contact with your skin, wipe the
area with a cloth and then wash thoroughly with soap and
running water.
Extremely high-precision technology has been used to
manufacture the LCD screen so that most of the pixels are
operational for use. However, there may be some minute
points (black, white, red, blue or green) that constantly
appear on the LCD screen. These points are normal in the
manufacturing process and the recording is not affected in
any way.
If liquid crystal gets into your eye, flush the affected eye
with clean water for at least 15 minutes and then seek
medical assistance.
If liquid crystal is swallowed, flush your mouth thoroughly
with water. Drink large quantities of water and induce
vomiting. Then seek medical assistance immediately.
Avoid exposing the LCD screen to water; please remove
any moisture on the LCD screen with a soft dry cleaning
cloth.
