Operation
1. FPC/FFC Termination procedure.
Connector installed on the board.
1) Lift up the actuator. Use thumb or index finger.
Precautions
1) Avoid forcing the actuator up or down without the
FPC/FFC inserted.
2) Fully insert the FPC/FFC parallel to mounting sur-
face, with the exposed conductive traces facing
UP.

2) When closing down the actuator apply equal pres-
sure to both sides of the actuator.
Stiffener
3) Rotate down the actuator until firmly closed.
It is critical that the inserted FPC/FFC is not moved
and remains fully inserted. Should the FPC/FFC be
moved, open the actuator and repeat the process,
starting with Step 1 above.
2. FPC/FFC Removal
1) Lift up the actuator.
2) Carefully remove the FPC/FFC.
3) Avoid forced pulling of the FPC. Forced pulling
will cause the FPC to become disconnected or
damaged.
