Installing the screen protector The Ranger 5 / TSC5 device is fitted with a chemically strengthened glass touchscreen which is highly resistant to abrasion and impact damage. However to ensure maximum protection, it is recommended that you use a Trimble-approved toughened glass Ranger 5 / TSC5 screen protector. To install the screen protector: 1. Place the device on a clean, flat surface. Make sure your hands are clean. 2. Clean the touchscreen with the supplied alcohol wipe, damp cloth, or similar.
3. Polish and dry the screen with the lint-free cleaning cloth supplied. 4. Remove any dust specs with the supplied dust sticker.
5. Remove the protective film from the screen protector. 6. Align the screen protector with the top of the glass display. Use the Ranger 5 / TSC5 label at the top of the keypad as a guide. The screen protector should line up evenly with the Ranger 5 / TSC5 label and the edges of the device.
7. Carefully lay the screen protector down on the screen. If you make a mistake and the glass looks off-center, you can gently lift it up and realign it. Then, once the protector is on the screen, give it a soft press in the center and allow the adhesive surface to grip to the screen naturally.
