FCC INFORMATION
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits of a Class B digital device,
pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses and can radiate radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is
no guarantee that the interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment
does cause unacceptable interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures -- reorient or relocate the receiving
antenna; increase the separation between equipment and receiver; or connect the into an
outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
FCC WARNING
To assure continued FCC compliance, the user must use a grounded power supply cord and
the provided shielded video interface cable with bonded ferrite cores. Also, any unauthorized
changes or modifications to Amtrak products will void the user’s authority to operate this
device. Thus VINC Will not be held responsible for the product and its safety.
CE CERTIFICATION
This device complies with the requirements of the EEC directive 89/336/EEC with regard to
“Electromagnetic compatibility.”
SAFETY CAUTION
Use a power cable that is properly grounded. Always use the AC cords as follows – USA (UL);
Canada (CSA); Germany (VDE); Switzerland (SEV); Britain (BASEC/BS); Japan (Electric
Appliance Control Act); or an AC cord that meets the local safety standards.

Please pay attention to the followings when you use this TFT LCD module.
9-1. MOUNTING PRECAUTIONS
(1) You must mount a module using holes arranged in four corners or four sides.
(2) You should consider the mounting structure so that uneven force (ex. Twisted
stress) is not applied to the module. And the case on which a module is mounted
should have sufficient strength so that external force is not transmitted directly to
the module.
(3) Please attach the surface transparent protective plate to the surface in order to
protect the polarizer.
Transparent protective plate should have sufficient strength in order to the resist
external force.
(4) You should adopt radiation structure to satisfy the temperature specification.

File No. SG-0204
(5) Acetic acid type and chlorine type materials for the cover case are not desirable
because the former generates corrosive gas of attacking the polarizer at high
temperature and the latter causes circuit break by electro-chemical reaction.
(6) Do not touch, push or rub the exposed polarizes with glass, tweezers or
anything harder than HB pencil lead. And please do not rub with dust clothes
with chemical treatment.
Do not touch the surface of polarizer for bare hand or greasy cloth.(Some
cosmetics are detrimental to the polarizer.)
(7) When the surface becomes dusty, please wipe gently with absorbent cotton or
other soft materials like chamois soaks with petroleum benzene. Normal-hexane
is recommended for cleaning the adhesives used to attach front / rear polarizers.
Do not use acetone, toluene and alcohol because they cause chemical damage
to the polarizer.
(8) Wipe off saliva or water drops as soon as possible. Their long time contact with
polarizer causes deformations and color fading.
(9) Do not open the case because inside circuits do not have sufficient strength.
9-2. OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
(1) The spike noise causes the mis-operation of circuits. It should be lower than
following voltage :
V=±200mV(Over and under shoot voltage)
(2) Response time depends on the temperature. (In lower temperature, it becomes
longer.)
(3) Brightness depends on the temperature. (In lower temperature, it becomes
lower.)And in lower temperature, response time (required time that brightness is
stable after turned on) becomes longer.
(4) Be careful for condensation at sudden temperature change. Condensation
makes damage to polarizer or electrical contacted parts. And after fading
condensation, smear or spot will occur.
(5) When fixed patterns are displayed for a long time, remnant image is likely to
occur.
(6) Module has high frequency circuits. System manufacturers shall do sufficient
suppression to the electromagnetic interference. Grounding and shielding
methods may be important to minimize the interference.

9-3. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS FOR PROTECTION
(1) The protection film is attached to the bezel with a small masking tape. When the
protection film is peeled off, static electricity is generated between the film and
polarizer. This should be peeled off slowly and carefully by people who are
electrically grounded and with well ion-blown equipment or in such a condition,
etc.
(2) When the module with protection film attached is stored for a long time,
sometimes there remains a very small amount of glue still on the bezel after the
protection film is peeled off.
(3) You can remove the glue easily. When the glue remains on the bezel surface or
its vestige is recognized, please wipe them off with absorbent cotton waste or
other soft material like chamois soaked with normal-hexane.
