3.11.1 Caring For The Touchscreen

The top of the touchscreen is a thin, flexible polyester plastic sheet with a conductive coating on the inside. The polyester can be permanently damaged by harsh chemicals and is susceptible to abrasions and scratches. NEO is equipped with a stylus that is designed to safely select items on the touchscreen. Use only the stylus on the touchscreen; using sharp objects on the touchscreen can scratch or cut the plastic, or crack the internal conductive coating.

The chemicals listed below must not come into contact with the touchscreen:

sodium hydroxide,

concentrated caustic solutions,

benzyl alcohol, and

concentrated acids.

Note: An optional protective cover (PN 1081366) is available to help protect the touch- screen. Follow the installation instructions shipped with the cover.

3.11.2 Cleaning NEO

Important: Do not immerse the unit in water. Dampen a soft cloth with mild detergent to wipe the exterior of the unit clean.

Use only mild detergent or soapy water to clean the hand-held unit.

Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents or strong chemicals. The plastic case is susceptible to harsh chemicals; it is partially soluble in oils, mineral spirits and gasoline. The plastic slowly decomposes in strong alkaline solutions.

To clean ink marks from the keyboard and touchscreen, use isopropyl alcohol.

When using a dampened cloth to clean NEO, make certain that the battery cover is in place to protect the battery compartment from moisture.
