CAUTION
●The glass screen on the liquid crystal
display may break if it is hit with a hard
or sharp object. If the glass breaks, do
not touch the liquid crystalline material,

cury. In case of contact with skin, wash
immediately with soap and water. ●
To clean the display, never use a rough
cloth, alcohol, benzine, thinner or any
kind of solvent or paper towel with a
chemical cleaning agent. They will
scratch or deteriorate the panel.

quickly become high enough to cause
severe or possibly fatal injuries to
people or animals.

long periods as it may cause the interior
air to become stale and the windows to
fog up.

ment will be maintained automatically. Air
