Precautions for Using the Touch Panel

This machine features a capacitance-base touch panel. Note the following points when operating the Touch Panel.

• Use your finger or a Stylus Pen (available commercially). Note that the Touch Panel will not respond appropriately if you operate it using your nail or a pen tip instead of your finger or the Stylus Pen.

• Applying a strong force to the Touch Panel will damage the Touch Panel, and potentially cause a breakage.

• When operating the Touch Panel, do not press on it using excessive force or with a pointed object such as a mechanical pencil.

• Be careful not to operate Touch Panel with wet fingers. It may cause Touch Panel to be improperly operated.

• If you operate the Touch Panel with a gloved finger, the Touch Panel will not respond normally. You should operate it with a bare finger or using a Stylus Pen.

• Note that the Touch Panel may not respond normally if the distance between the user and fluorescent light is 19-11/16 inches (500 mm) or less when you operate the Touch Panel.

• You must not use the touch panel near equipment that generates electrical noises such as an electric generator or air conditioner. Otherwise a malfunction may be caused by an influence of electrical noises.
