1-8. Connecting/Disconnecting the Flexible Card Wire
m
.
Be very careful not to fold the
fl
exible card wire. Life of
fl
exible card wire will be signi
fi
cantly short-
ened if it is folded.
.
The
fl
exible card wire has the conduction side and the insulation side. If the conduction side and the
insulation side are connected in the wrong direction, the circuit will not function.
.
Insert the
fl
exible card wire straight.
.
Ensure that the conduction surface of the
fl
exible card wire is not contaminated.
Disconnecting
Life portions A of the connector to unlock, and disconnect the
fl
exible card wire.
Connecting
1. Insert
the
fl
exible card wire
fi
rmly as far as it will go, with the conduction side up.
2. Push portions A of the connector to lock.
1-9. Lead-free
Solder
Boards requiring use of lead-free solder are printed with a lead free mark (LF) indicating the solder
contains no lead.
(Caution: Some printed circuit boards may not come printed with the lead free mark due to their particular
size.)
: LEAD FREE MARK
m
.
Be sure to use the lead-free solder for the printed circuit board printed with the lead free mark.
.
The lead-free solder melts at a temperature about 40
d
C higher than the ordinary solder, therefore, it is
recommended to use the soldering iron having a temperature regulator.
.
The ordinary soldering iron can be used but the iron tip has to be applied to the solder joint for a slightly
longer time. The printed pattern (copper foil) may peel away if the heated tip is applied for too long, so
be careful.
