Step 3: Install fourteen capacitors
The six capacitors shown above are polarized, and have to be installed in the
correct orientation. Note the white stripe running the length of each cap; this
identifies the negative (minus) lead. On the circuit board, the circle for this
cap’s location has a thicker line on one side: insert the capacitors with their
stripe facing that side. (On polarized caps of this type, there’s a second way
to identify the minus lead: it is the shorter of the two leads.)

The remaining capacitors are not polarized. Solder these caps in place facing
either direction.
