        Interlock
        Counterclockwise

        While pushing on the interlock indicated in the illustration. Make sure to rotate the spiral cable sub-assembly counterclockwise slowly by hand until it stops.

        NOTE:

        Make sure to rotate the spiral cable sub-assembly counterclockwise. If rotated clockwise, it may be damaged or centering may no longer be possible.

        HINT: 

        The interlock operates at the top and bottom of the connector.
