1. The heavy lines on the schematic denote the primary signal path.

2. Unless otherwise noted, all voltages indicated on the schematics are measured under the following conditions: a. AC input at 120 volts, 50/60Hz. b. All voltages are +/-10% with respect to ground. A high impedance (10 megaohm) voltmeter must be used.

4 . On PC board drawings, Square pad indicates:

a. Polarized Capacitors - Positive b. Diodes - Cathode c. Others - Pin 1

5. WARNING

Parts marked with the symbol have critical characteristics. Use only replacement parts recommended by the manufacturer.
