Essential Safety Precautions This manual describes safety instructions for correct use of the FP unit. Please keep this manual close at hand and refer to it when necessary. Safety Icons Throughout this manual, these icons provide essential safety information for FP operation procedures requiring special attention. These icons indicate the following levels of danger: Indicates situations where severe bodily injury, death or major equipment damage can occur.
In a situation that a detection function for the backlight burnout has been ineffective, if a burnout of the backlight happened, unlike in an extinction condition of the backlight of FP, the touch panel is still active. If an operator fails to notice that the backlight is burned out and touches the panel, a potentially dangerous machine miss-operation can occur. Therefore, do not set up switches on the touch panel of an FP that are likely to cause human error or physical damage triggered by mis-operation.
Avoid restricting the FP’s natural ventilation, or storing and using the FP in an environment that will increase the FP’s internal temperature. Do not use the FP in areas where sudden, large changes in temperature may occur. These changes can cause condensation to form inside the unit, possibly causing an accident. Do not store or use the FP where chemicals (such as organic solvents, etc.) and acids can evaporate, or where chemicals and acids are present in the air.
