qBottom Contact Type (common for 0.5mm/1mm Pitch)
Operation
Precautions
3) Rotate down the actuator until firmly closed.
It is critical that the inserted FPC/FFC is not moved
and remains fully inserted. Should the FPC/FFC be
moved, open the actuator and repeat the process,
starting with Step 1.
6) Partial insertion of the FPC/FFC, offset insertion, and
diagonal insertion will result in an unfavorable engage-
ment of the lock lever in which the lock lever is raised.
To correct this, first remove the FPC/FFC and then
reinsert it. Forcing the lock will damage the connector.
Stiffener
7) When locking, handle the FPC/FFC so that a load
is not applied to the FPC/FFC as would occur by
pulling the FPC/FFC, or lifting it, etc.
When a load is applied in the opposite direction to
the rotational movement of the lock, an excessive
load will be applied and this will cause connector
damage.
2. FPC/FFC Removal
1) Lift up the actuator.
2) Carefully remove the FPC/FFC.
8) At the time of lock operation, application of force
such as that indicated by the arrows in the dia-
grams below will cause the lock lever to disengage.
When the lock lever has become disengaged,
please exchange the entire connector.
