8. TROUBLE SHOOTING
• Ensure that the power is turned OFF before making adjustments or replacing
parts.
• If none of the items below correspond to your problem, or if the problem is not
corrected by the treatment described below, contact your dealer for further
advice.
• Always return PC Boards to your dealer for repair. Never test the PC board for
continuity with a multimeter or similar device. The PC Board contains sensitive
devices which could be damaged or even destroyed by the internal voltage of
such test equipment.
• When sending parts for repair, clearly indicate the problem, and send them in
secure and adequate packing. Especially in the case of sending PC Boards,
wrap them in sponge or bubble wrap prior to packing, so that they do not
receive excessive shock.
