    CAUTION:
    • Soldering for a long period of time could affect the surrounding electrical circuit. Apply soldering for an extremely short period of time.
  4. Set the heat-shrinkable tubing to the soldered area and shrink the heat-shrinkable tubing at a temperature of approx. 100°C {212°F} using a drier until the plastic melts on both ends.
