6.2 Fuse Replacement
A fuse is in the fuse holder on the power cable and inside the power supply unit, and
they protect the equipment from reverse polarity of the ship's mains and equipment
fault. If a fuse blows, find out the cause before replacing it. Use the correct fuse. Using
the wrong fuse will damage the equipment and void the warranty.
