• Helps prevent motor overheating and repeated start attempts caused by a failing capacitor
• Used wherever the motor's run capacitor is required for continuous operation

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to prevent shock
• Discharge the capacitor before touching terminals to avoid stored-charge shock
• Replace with the same part number/specifications; ensure terminals are secure and insulated
