1. Never connect the unit to power sources of any other 100-240 Vac. Otherwise, this
could cause an accident or a malfunction.
2. Make sure never to make the following materials come closer to the heater.
・Human bodies such as hand, face and so on.
・Highly volatile chemicals, such as alcohol, thinner and paint.
・Combustibles such as paper, wood and plastic and so on.
Be sure to store the tweezers part in the holder after use.
3. Avoid allowing your face to come closer than
30 cm to the PCB while desoldering metal-
shielded electrolytic capacitors. These parts
occasionally burst when heated.
4. When replacing heater units, prevent electric shocks and burns by first being sure to
turn the power switch off, then disconnecting the power cord from the outlet, and
allowing the heater units to cool.
