CAUTIONS
1. Check grounding before checking for trouble.
2. Be careful of the high voltage circuit.
3. Discharge the high voltage capacitor. (See page 2-1)
4. When checking the continuity of the switches or of the high voltage transformer, disconnect one lead
wire from these parts and then check continuity with the AC plug removed. To do otherwise may result
in a false reading or damage to your meter.
5. Do not touch any part of the circuitry on the digital programmer circuit since static electric discharge
may damage this control panel.
Always touch yourself ground while working on this panel to discharge any static charge built up in your
body.
