•  Make sure that the flat cable and flexible board are not cracked of 

bent at the terminal.

  Do not insert the cable insufficiently nor crookedly.

•  When remove a connector, do not pull at wire of connector. It is 

possible that a wire is snapped.

•  When installing a connector, do not press down at wire of connector. 
  It is possible that a wire is snapped.

•  Do not apply excessive load to the gilded flexible board.

The charging capacitor is charged up to the maximum 310 V
potential.
There is a danger of electric shock by this high voltage 
when the capacitor is handled by hand.  The electric shock 
is caused by the charged voltage which is kept without dis-
charging when the main power of the unit is simply turned 
off.  Therefore, the remaining voltage must be discharged as 
described below.

To preparing the short jig, a small clip is attached to each end 
of a resistor of 1 k

Ω /1 W (1-215-869-11).

Wrap insulating tape fully around the leads of the resistor to 
prevent electrical shock.

Cut and remove the part of gilt
which comes off at the point.
(Be careful or some
pieces of gilt may be left inside)
