Before You Start
Precautions
Installation•Do not install the unit where it may be exposed to direct sunlight, near heating equipment, or 
near air-conditioning vents as this may cause stretching and/or discoloration of the screen. 
•Do not install the unit in strong sunlight or strong lighting. Proper copying may become 
impossible.
•Do not install the unit in locations where the temperature may change suddenly as this may 
disable the unit’s ability to make copies.
Screen Film•Make thick and dark lines inside the copying area. 
Note that any writing inside the shaded area (on 
right) cannot be copied.
•Do not allow writing to remain on the screen for an 
extended period of time as it will become harder to 
erase.
•Do not erase with an overly dirty eraser (see page 
75).
•Periodically wipe the screen film gently with a 
water-dampened cloth that has been thoroughly wrung. (See page 75.)
•Use a commercially available white board cleaner for hard-to-erase stains. 
(SANFORD® EXPO® white board cleaner etc.)
•Do not touch the screen, write with markers, or erase while the screen is moving as this may 
result in damage to the unit.
•Do not attach chart paper to the screen film for copying as this may result in damage to the 
unit.
Markers, 
Erasers and 
Thermal 
Transfer Film•Use only the included or designated markers, erasers and thermal transfer film. (See page 
82.)
Use of accessories other than those included or designated (such as oil-based 
markers) may damage the screen or result in hard-to-erase markings.
•Copy quality increases with the thickness of the drawn line. To ensure quality copies, please 
use the markers (big).
•The markers for interactive (small) draw thin lines. The quality of the copies may be reduced 
when these markers are used.
•Do not store the thermal transfer film in a location subject to extreme changes in 
temperature (such as near air conditioning or heating equipment) as this may cause 
condensation on the thermal transfer film and result in poor print quality and/or paper jams.
•Store markers horizontally as vertical storage may stop the ink from coming out.
•The length of one roll of designated thermal transfer film (Replacement film: UG-6001) is 
approximately 50 meters (164 ft.). One roll of thermal transfer film can make approximately 
150 sheets of copies.
Note that the total number of copies may differ depending on the operating conditions.
Also note that the length of the thermal transfer film supplied with the unit is shorter 
than the replacement film roll and is only approximately 10 meters (32.8 ft.).
Power Cord 
and USB 
Cable•When moving the unit, disconnect the power cord from the electrical power socket and from 
the printer’s power connector, and disconnect the USB cable from the printer’s USB 
connector and a computer. Then coil them for transportation as stepping on the power cord 
and USB cable or having them catch on something during movement may result in damage 
to the cord and cable.
•If you connect the electronic board to a USB hub, it is not guaranteed to work.
•Do not connect two or more Panasonic electronic boards to a computer. It may cause the 
computer operation to become unstable.

							Precautions
12
Replacing 
the Thermal 
Transfer Film•Dispose of the used thermal transfer film in a trash receptacle for burnable trash.
•A negative of the copied image will remain on the thermal transfer film. (To protect the 
security of your information, we recommend cutting up the used thermal transfer film with 
scissors or shredder before disposing of it.)
Electronic 
Pen and 
Electronic 
Eraser
•Do not cover the transmitter with your hand while using an interactive function as this may 
cause the position of the Electronic Pen or the Electronic Eraser not to be normally 
detected.
•Press down firmly with the point of the Electronic Pen or the eraser cloth of the Electronic 
Eraser on the screen film until you hear a buzzing sound, and then move it slowly. 
However, do not press down the point of the Electronic Pen too much strongly as this may 
make a dent in the screen back panel.
•Do not use two or more the Electronic Pens or the Electronic Eraser at the same time as this 
may cause the position of the Electronic Pen or the Electronic Eraser not to be normally 
detected.
•For precise positioning, keep the Electronic Pen and Electronic Eraser perpendicularly to 
the screen during use.
•Since ultrasonic is used to detect the position of the Electronic Pen and Electronic Eraser 
when they are being used, you may hear a buzzing sound, but this is not harmful to the 
human body or peripheral hardware. It will also not result in an electric shock.

Before You StartBatteryIf batteries are used improperly, batteries may leak, causing corrosion of the unit, or they may 
burst. To prevent this, always follow the precautions given below.
•Always remove batteries from the Electronic Pen and Electronic Eraser if they are not to be 
used for an extended period of time.
•Use the same type of batteries. Do not mix different types.
•Do not mix old and new batteries.
•Always insert batteries with their polarity properly oriented as indicated on the Electronic 
Pen or Electronic Eraser.
•If the Electronic Pen or Electronic Eraser ceases to function because batteries have run out, 
remove them immediately and dispose of them according to local regulations. 
Leaving drained batteries in the Electronic Pen or Electronic Eraser may result in leakage.
•Do not disassemble batteries or place them in a fire.
•Do not short batteries.
•Alkaline batteries cannot be recharged. Never attempt to recharge alkaline batteries.
Projector•Light from the projector may enter the eye when using a projector to project images for the 
purpose of making presentations and so on. Be very careful as direct projector light may 
hurt the eyes.
