Apply Touch Screen Protective Film

The optional Thor VM2 touch screen protective film is shipped in packs of 10. The protective film is flexible and treated with an anti-glare coating on the outer surface.

The protective film is slightly larger than the Thor VM2 touch screen, however the notches on the edge of the protective film (indicated by the arrows) correspond to the display size of the Thor VM2. The protective film is not adhesive. The corner edges are designed to fit between the Thor VM2 display and the display housing to hold the protective film in place.

A protective backing is applied to the rear surface of the protective film. A pull tab is attached to the protective backing for easy removal of the protective backing from the film.

Pull Tab

Installation

1.Make sure the touch screen is clean and dry before installation. See Cleaning (page 4-18)for instructions on suitable cleaning agents.

2.Pull the release tab to separate the protective backing from the rear of the protective film. Avoid touching the rear side of the protective film while removing the liner.

3.Place the rear side of the protective film against the Thor VM2 display, roughly centering the protective film over the display.

4.Slide the protective film until one corner can be slid back between the touch screen and the display housing as the protective film is re-centered on the display. It may be necessary to press the edges of the protective film against the display to ensure the entire edge slides under the display housing. It is easiest to start with one of the bottom corners.

5.Slide the protective film away from the other bottom corner. The film may bulge sligthly away from the Reference Guide as it is being slid. Only slide the protective film enough so that the protective film can slide under the display housing on that corner when the protective film is returned to center.

6.Repeat with each of the top corners, sliding the protective film away from the corner just enough that the protective film can slide under the display housing when the protective film is returned to center.

7.It may be necessary to flex the protective film during the install, however use care not to flex the protective film so much that the protective film kinks.

8.Once all corners are secure under the display housing, adjust the protective film, if necessary, so it is centered on the touch screen.

Removal

1.To remove the protective film, slide the protective film in one direction until the edge clears.

2.Lift up on the edge of the protective film so it does not slide between the touch screen and display housing when the protective film is slid back to the center.

3.Repeat until all edges are free and remove the protective film.
