The four capacitors shown above are polarized, and have to be installed in
the correct orientation. Note the white stripe running the length of each cap;
this identifies the negative (minus) lead. On the circuit board, the circle for
this cap’s location has a thicker line on one side: insert the capacitors with
their stripe facing that side. (On polarized caps of this type, there’s a second
way to identify the minus lead: it is the shorter of the two leads.)
The remaining capacitors are not polarized. Solder these caps in place
facing either direction.
