The purchaser assumes any responsibility for damage to the product caused by improper It is highly recommended that the product should be installed within 3 months from the date of arrival in the logistics hub. Recommended storage condition is -20~40 Celsius degree, 35-60% RH Take extra cautions when using this RF device in the vicinity of other electronic devices and appliances. Most electronic devices and appliances use electromagnetic waves. Electromagnetic waves emitted by this RF device can affect other electronic devices and appliances. If using the device in an explosion hazard area, follow all safety regulations, instructions, and signals. 3.2 Storage and Use device itself. surface and damaged. Moisture and liquids can damage internal parts and circuit boards if allowed to enter into the Do not place or store the product on a sloped surface. The product may slide and fall off the Use the product in temperatures ranging from 0 to +30. Parts and circuits may be damaged if operating or stored in extreme temperature. The display panel needs extra care when handling.
- Do not apply any impacts on the e-Paper display as it is fragile.
- Continuous exposure to excessive moisture (over 60% RH) or UV shortens display lifetime.
- Ghosting image may appear in temperature conditions of less than 15 Celsius degree. Avoid areas with strong magnetism or subject to magnetism. Contact between the device and a magnetic object can lead to malfunctions. Do not place the product near heat-producing kitchen appliances like a stove or a microwave or in the vicinity of highly pressurized containers.
