Maintenance and servicing 10.1 Maintenance and service Scope of maintenance The HMI device is designed for maintenance-free operation. Despite this, the touch screen or keyboard membrane and the display must be cleaned regularly. Preparation CAUTION Faulty operation Always switch off the HMI device before cleaning it. This will ensure that you do not trigger unintended functions when you touch the keys.
Protective membrane A protective membrane is available for the HMI device touch screens. The relevant ordering information is provided in the Siemens Catalog ST 80. The protective membrane is not included in the HMI device package. The self-adhesive membrane prevents the screen from being scratched and soiled. The mat surface of the membrane reduces reflections under unfavorable lighting conditions.
A service pack can be ordered for servicing purposes. It contains the following spare parts: ● Mounting seal ● Mounting clamps ● Terminal block (twin block) The service pack can be ordered from your Siemens representative.

Appendix ESD Directives What does ESD mean? All electronic modules are equipped with highly integrated modules or components. Based on their design, these electronic components are highly sensitive to overvoltage and thus to discharge of static electricity. These electronic components are therefore specially identified as ESD.
Page 150
Appendix A.1 ESD Directives Electrostatic charge CAUTION Electrostatic charge ESDs may be destroyed by voltages well below the perception threshold of persons Voltages of this kind develop when a component or an assembly is touched by a person who is not grounded against static electricity. Usually, it is unlikely that damage to an ESD as a result of overvoltage is detected immediately but may become apparent only after a longer period of operation.
Appendix A.2 System alarms Protective measures against discharge of static electricity CAUTION Grounding measures When working with electrostatic sensitive devices, make sure that the person, the workplace and the packaging are properly grounded. This helps to avoid electrostatic charge. As a rule, only touch the ESD if this is unavoidable. Example: for maintenance. When you touch modules, make sure that you do not touch the pins on the modules or the PCB tracks.
