ELECTRONIC OVEN CONTROLS

HANDLING THE BOARDS

The Touch Control Board and the Display Head

are subject to failure if static electricity is trans-

ferred to the components during handling. When

handling these parts, use a grounding strap, if

available. If not, touch any grounded metal sur-

face, (e.g. the appliance chassis), prior to han-

dling these components.

The replacement Touch Control Board and the

Display Head are packaged in antistatic bags.

When removing the boards from their bags,

handle them as follows:

Touch Control Board

Handle the Touch Control Board only by the

edges of the glass and the plastic frame. DO NOT

TOUCH the connector pins, or the microproces-

sor chips.

Display Head

Handle the Display Head only by the edges of

the plastic frame. DO NOT TOUCH the connec-

tor pins, the microprocessor chip, or jumper

wires.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Repack the old boards in the

antistatic bags before returning them to a parts

distributor.
