Installation Notes

Capacitor replacement should be performed by a qualified appliance technician. Always disconnect power to the appliance at the breaker or by unplugging the unit before beginning service. Capacitors can retain a charge even after power is removed - discharge the capacitor safely using an appropriate resistive discharge tool before handling. Reinstall with the same orientation and wiring configuration as the original component.
