2-2

The charging capacitor (C901) of the AF-125 flexible board is 
charged up to the maximum 315 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 discharging 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.

•  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, don’t pull at wire of connector. It is 

possible that a wire is snapped.

•  When installing a connector, don’t press down at wire of con-

nector. 

  It is possible that a wire is snapped.

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

Discharging the Capacitor
Short-circuit between two points with the short jig
