2.0 PRECAUTIONS
2.1 INSTALLATION
This game is designed for indoor use only. It must not be installed outdoors.
The following conditions must be avoided.
1. Direct exposure to sunlight, high humidity, direct water contact, dust, high
heat, or extreme cold.
2. The game must be installed on a level surface with levelers and/or cast-
ers in place to avoid vibration.
3. Do not place near hazardous, flammable, or chemical liquids.
Do not install in an area such that the game would present an obstacle in case
of an emergency (i.e., near fire equipment or emergency exits).
2.2 HANDLING
1. Before operating the game, make sure that the main AC power hookup
includes a safety ground. This will ensure safe operation as well as com-
pliance with FCC and UL regulations. Measure the AC power line volt-
age. Verify that the voltage source is between 110 and 125 VAC.
2. Before replacing any parts, turn the AC power OFF and unplug the game.
3. When unplugging the game from an electrical outlet, always grasp the
plug, not the line cord.
4. The game power supply includes areas of high voltage. Take care at all
times to avoid electrical shock whenever inspecting or adjusting the
game.
5. Do not attempt to repair the Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) on-site. They
contain sensitive integrated circuit chips that could be easily damaged,
even by the small internal voltage of a multimeter. Always return the
PCBs to your distributor for any repairs.
6. Always raise the leg levelers before attempting to move the game.
WARNING
When packing PCB’s for shipment, enclose in anti-static wrap. TAITO CORPO-
RATION is not responsible for damage to components due to static discharge.
5
3.0 INSPECTION
To ensure a successful startup following shipment, the CONVOY game
cabinet should be inspected before initial power-up.
1. Carefully remove the game cabinet from its shipping platform and in-
spect it for visible signs of damage.
2. Remove the keys from the coin return. Open and remove the rear ac-
cess panel.
3. Inspect the game’s PCB, verifying that all connections are properly
seated. Inspect the power supply area for any loose components.
4. Connect the main AC power cord and turn on the power.
WARNING
Removal of serial numbers from product or components will be void the
warranty.
4.0 INSTALLATION
Note: Shipping damage may void the warranty. In case of shipping dam-
age, contact your distributor and the transportation carrier immediately.
With the game in its installation position, lower the leg levelers.
