Characteristics of the LCD panel

• Due to the directional characteristics of LCDs, the LCD display is difficult to read when

viewed from above. However, the display can be seen clearly from a somewhat lower
angle.

• The LCD display becomes darker at high temperatures (approx. 60°C/140°F), but returns

to normal at normal temperatures (20°C/68°F).

• The LCD’s response time slows down at low temperatures (approx. 5°C/41°F and below),

but returns to normal at normal temperatures (20°C/68°F).
