Caution
All cables along the lower edge of the Mother Board and VNA PCB Assembly must be routed in such
a manner that they will not be pinched between, or protrude between, the case halves of the upper
battery compartment. If any cable protrudes into the battery compartment when the case is closed,
then the cable may be damaged by pinching, or by the battery when it is inserted, or it may prevent
battery insertion.
