Notes on Using FPC Connectors
• Remove the FPC at parallel with the lever fully opened. If the
lever is closed, or if the FPC is forcedly pulled, the product or
FPC may break.
• If a lever is accidentally detached during the handling of a
connector, do not use the connector any longer.
■ After an FPC is inserted, carefully handle it so as not to
apply excessive stress to the base of the FPC. When using
FPC with a bent condition, please pay attention to
precautions below; otherwise, in some conditions it may
cause conduction failure, connector breakage, unlocking
lever or FPC disconnection.
• Design so that a load is not applied to connector directly by
FPC bending.
• Avoid sharp FPC bending at the root of FPC insertion part.
• Design so that a load is not applied to the part of FPC bending.
• Fix the FPC if there might be a load on FPC when using the
FPC with cutout, do not apply a bending load to the cutout part
of FPC. Otherwise, it may cause FPC disconnection and
deformation since the cutout part of FPC is subjected to bending
stress.

■ Other cautions
• When coating the PC board after soldering the connector (to
prevent the deterioration of insulation), perform the coating in
such a way so that the coating does not get on the connector.
• The connectors are not meant to be used for switching.
• There is no problem on the product quality though the swelling
and the black spot, etc. might be generated in the molding parts.
Please refer to the latest product specifications when
designing your product.
