| + | [* black] Press the iron's tip against one of the solder pads in the outline labeled ***R4*** for a few seconds to heat it. |
| [* icon_caution] If you heat the circuit board continuously for more than 10 seconds, the excessive heat may damage the solder pad. | |

| + | [* black] Feed the solder wire into the heated area until there's a small glob of solder on the pad. |
| [* icon_note] The solder should melt onto the pad within a few seconds. If the solder doesn't adhere to the pad, apply flux to the pad or increase the temperature. | |
| [* black] Remove the solder wire first, then remove the soldering iron from the pad. |
