Electrolytics have a polarity marking indicating the
(–) lead. The PC board is marked to show the lead
position. Warning: If the capacitor is connected with
incorrect polarity, or if it is subjected to voltage
exceeding its working voltage, it may heat up and
either leak or cause the capacitor to explode.

Capacitor C14
For safety, solder capacitor C14
on the copper side as shown.
Bend the leads 90
O and insert
into holes. Check that the
polarity is correct, then solder in
place. Trim the excess leads on
legend side.
