Locate and remove the unit’s power cord. Once the cord has been
removed located the fuse holder located inside the power socket.
Insert a flat-head screw driver into the power socket and gently pry out
the fuse holder. Remove the bad fuse and replace with a new one. The
fuse holder has a built-in socket for a spare fuse be sure not to confuse
the spare fuse with active fuse.
