ABSTRACT:
A molded product for an operation panel1is produced by injection molding or the like. A set of characters7indicative of the type of each operation switch17is formed, by a screen printing process, at a location near to the subject switch opening portions6. Next, another screen printing process is executed to form a set of Braille dots12indicative of each set of characters7at a location overlapping the subject set of characters7. Accordingly, sticking spaces which are required in the case of sticking seals of the Braille dots12are unnecessary any more. The Braille dots12can be arranged freely in a narrow space. Even though the surface3of the operation panel1is curved, it is ensured that the Braille dots12be arranged in a secured layout, unlike the case of sticking a Braille tape on the surface3.
