    7. Maintenance and Inspection To avoid failures and assure reliable long-term operation, make daily and periodic inspections. Take the following precautions while performing any maintenance work. WARNING The intermediate dc circuit capacitor may retain its charge for some time after power is turned off. Therefore it may take some time until the intermediate dc circuit voltage falls to a safe level.
