Maintenance

Replacing the Fuse

If a fuse is blown, disconnect the unit s
power, replace the fuse, then reconnect
the power. Make sure the amperage of
the new fuse matches that of the old fuse.
If the fuse blows soon after replacement,
the unit may be malfunctioning, in which
case the unit should be checked by a
service dealer.

!

Warning

Never use a fuse with an amperage rating

higher than the fuse supplied with your unit.

A higher-rated fuse will not protect the unit

from electrical surges which will likely result

in electrical damage to the unit.
