341 Here are some general guidelines when inserting the wires into the
342 SSC-32, SSC-32U and/or BotBoarduino. Use a 2mm wide flat blade screw
343 driver. Rotate
344 the screw both directions looking into the end of the terminal. When
345 you see it opening (moving downwards), keep turning until it is open
346 completely. Wrap / twist the wires by hand to ensure they are aligned
347 as in Figure 6. Be sure that the wires are fully inserted into the
348 terminals and that <b>no stray wires are able to touch each other</b>
349 as this is a short and can cause the battery to discharge rapidly,
350 causing heat and possibly fire. </font></font><font face="Verdana" size="2">&nbsp;</font>
