cleaning the display. The dust that settles on the display
may be removed with special brushes. Avoid using any
detergent for cleaning.
The display glass could break in the event of impact. In
this case, do not touch the liquid crystal that emerges
from the display. If this occurs, quickly wash the
contaminated parts with soap and water.
