Unit Disposal

General Safety Precautions

When the product is disposed of, it should be disposed of in a manner appropriate to, and in accordance

with, the user country's industrial machinery disposal/recycling standards.

Do not press on the GP unit’s display with excessive force or with a hard object, since it can damage the

display. Also, do not press on the touch panel with a pointed object, such as the tip of a mechanical pencil

or a screwdriver, since doing so can damage the touch panel.

Do not install the GP where the ambient temperature exceeds the specified range. Doing so may cause a

unit malfunction.

To prevent abnormally high temperatures from occurring inside the GP, do not restrict or block the GP

unit’s rear-face ventilation slots.

Do not operate the GP in areas where large, sudden temperature changes can occur. These changes can

cause condensation to form inside the GP, possibly causing it to malfunction.

Do not allow water, liquids or metal fragments to enter inside the GP unit’s case, since they can cause

either a malfunction or an electric shock. The allowable pollution degree is 2.

Do not operate or store the GP in locations where it can be exposed to direct sunlight, high temperatures,

excessive dust, moisture or vibration.

Do not operate or store the GP where chemicals evaporate, or where chemicals are present in the air.

Corrosive chemicals: Acids, alkalines, liquids containing salt

Flammable chemicals: Organic Solvents

Do not use paint thinner or organic solvents to remove dirt or oil from the GP unit’s surface. Instead, use a

soft cloth moistened with a diluted neutral detergent.

Do not use or store the GP in areas with direct sunlight, since the sun’s ultraviolet rays may cause the

LCD’s quality to deteriorate.

Do not store the GP in an area where the temperature is lower than that recommended in the GP unit’s

specifications. Doing so may cause the LCD display’s liquid to congeal, which can damage the LCD.

Also, if the storage area’s temperature becomes higher than the specified level, the LCD’s liquid may

become isotropic, causing irreversible damage to the LCD. Therefore, only store the GP in areas where

temperatures are within the GP unit’s specifications.

After turning OFF the GP, be sure to wait a few seconds before turning it ON again. The GP may not oper-

ate correctly if it is restarted too quickly.

Be sure to back up the GP screen data and logic programs in case they are lost accidentally.
