requested to implement the following rules.
3.3.1 System Assembler
• Follow the power sequence: An abnormal power
sequence may cause critical malfunction or electrical
damage.
• Prevent physical stress.
• Prevent overheat:
– High temperatures on the surface of the screen may
cause poor quality. Please use the LCD Module on the
specified temperatures.
– Low temperatures (under 10 deg. C) makes the LCD
Module respond slowly, make the Backlight worse
operated, and will shorten very much the lifetime
accordingly.
2009-Jun-26
 EN 6 3. LCD Sharp 2k9 Precautions, Notes, and Abbreviation List

• Keep LCD Module dust-free: The LCD Module is
sensitive against dust; it can cause visual or functional
problems.
• Do not touch TCP area: Do not touch TCP area at any
case. It can cause Driver IC cracks, film cracks, etc. The
TCP is the weakest point of the LCD Module.
• Do not pull Backlight wire: Please do not pull the
Backlight wire, as it can cause the wire to become
disconnected or damaged.
• Check the connections of the Inverter & Backlight
connectors: Incomplete connection can cause burnt in
Backlight connectors or damage the inverter.
• Handle with care:
– Please do not drop, bend, or hit the LCD Module.
– Physical stress can cause defects as broken panels.
• Keep mounting screw length and motor driver’s
torque: Strong motor driver’s torque can make a
mechanical defect on LCD Module. Please keep within the
specifications.
• Do not operate for a long time under the same pattern:
Operating the LCD Module for a long time with the same
video pattern can cause image persistence and can
eventually damage it.
• Defective panels must also be handled with care:
– To prevent making other defects, please handle the
defective LCD Module as a good one.
– Defective LCD Modules must be repaired.
• Do not stack LCD Modules: The LCD Module consists of
fragile components such as TCPs or Glasses. Stacking the
LCD Modules can cause undesired defects.
• Do not provide strong pressure at connecting: Strong
pressure can transfer the force to the TCP, which is the
weakest part of the LCD Module. It eventually can make
the TCP crack or lead to other unexpected defects.
• Let the Backlight Wire at the backside of the LCD
Module: If let the Backlight wire in front of the LCD Module,
the Backlight connector can hurt the surface of the
polariser.
• Never (dis)connect at power “ON”: The LCD Module
consists of CMOS components, which are known as weak
components against EOS. It can damage the product.
• Electrostatic discharge can make damage:
– Semi-assembled product should be handled with wrist
strap.
– Earth human body when handle the LCD Module.
– Please do not touch the interface connector pin.
3.3.2 System Assembler/End User
• Keep the surface clean:
– Please wear rubber gloves when you touch the surface
of the LCD Module screen.
– Please use soft and anti-static material with n-Hexane
as cleaner.
• Be careful not to scratch the polariser:
– Surface of polariser is soft, so it’s easily scratched.
– Please do not touch, press or rub on polariser surface
with materials over HB hardness.
• Be careful with swift temperature and humidity
changes: Swift temperature and or humidity change can
make dew condensation or ice, which can cause non-
conformance such as malfunctioning.
• Keep out of water:
– Water on in the LCD Module can cause electrical short
or corrosion.
– Please wipe out or dry water carefully.
• Keep the LCD Module free from corrosive gasses:
Corrosive gas can chemically damage the polariser and
the circuitry parts and eventually will cause defects.
• Keep the suitable temperature and humidity: High
temperatures and high humidity will shorten the lifetime

5.3.2 Troubleshooting the inverter(s).

The check on which inverter is damaged can only be done by

swapping the inverters one by one. No measurements on the
inverters can be done because when an inverter is damaged/
not functioning correctly, the module will shut down (for safety
reasons), and measuring voltages or currents or any other
signals is not possible.
Inverter repair is not foreseen, and no further documentation is
available.

To properly check which inverter is damaged the workshop

needs to have at their side an inverter (kit) for the modules on
which they will do this board level repair, and exchange them
one by one. How the exchange has to be done is written/shown
with pictures in chapter 4. Mechanical Instructions of the
Service Manual.

Also there is no need to exchange both Master and Slave

pairs if one of both is damaged. No alignment is necessary
to do.
