(wireless communication, remote controller, etc) (5) When storing the tag, change it to a white screen, and maintain the proper temperature and
humidity. (6) After receiving the product, it should be installed within 3 months. (7) The display glass may break when it is dropped or bumped on a hard surface. (fragile by
external impact)

6.2. Electrical Conditions
The operating electrical conditions are those as below. In such conditions the ESL must be in conformity with the present specification. All devices can be damaged or non-operated over the specification as below.
The conformity to such requirement must be certified by the manufacturer.
