Installation and operating instructions

• Before installation, verify that the capacitance and rated voltage match the original capacitor and the motor requirements.
• Use the starting capacitor only in a circuit with a switching element (e.g. centrifugal switch, relay) that disconnects it after starting.
• Always safely discharge the capacitor using the appropriate procedure before handling.

Safety notice

• The product is intended for use with hazardous AC voltage (mains applications). Only perform installation when the power supply is disconnected.
• Improper connection or use outside the intended mode may result in damage to the device and risk of electric shock.
• After disconnecting the power supply, the capacitor may remain charged; discharge is necessary before touching the terminals.
