Introduction

If the touchscreen display of your GE Carescape R860 is powered on but unresponsive to touch, use this guide to replace the Touch Bezel Assembly.

Before using this guide, ensure that the screen lock is not turned on. Most commonly, a frozen touchscreen is the result of an accidentally switched on screen lock.

For additional information regarding this replacement, see section 9.5.5 (pg. 253) of the GE CARESCAPE R860 Technical Reference Manual.
