Always determine thecause of damage or overheating, and correct anypotential hazards.6. Observe the original lead dress, especially nearsharp edges, AC, and high voltage powersupplies. Always inspect for pinched, out-of-place, or frayed wiring. Do not change thespacing between components and the printedcircuit board.7. Product Safety Notice:Some electrical and mechanical parts have specialsafety-related characteristics which might not beobvious from visual inspection. These safetyfeatures and the protection they provide could belost if a replacement component differs from theoriginal. This holds true, even though thereplacement may be rated for higher voltage,wattage, etc.Components critical for safety are indicated inthe parts list with symbols . Use onlyreplacement components that have the sameratings, especially for flame resistance anddielectric specifications. A replacement part thatdoes not have the same safety characteristics asthe original may create shock, fire, or other safetyhazards.Samsung Electronics 1-1
