7. Terminal Connection 

The following steps should be taken prior to the connection. 
 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

8. Power Line Connection 

The terminals for power supply connection (

 and 

) are covered 

with a plastic plate for safety (see Fig. 1). 
Open the cover plate and connect the power lines to the terminals 
(see Fig. 2). 
Return the cover plate to its original position (see Fig. 3).
