                        ⚡ CRITICAL SAFETY CHECKLIST
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

✓ BEFORE ASSEMBLY:
  □ Read complete assembly guide
  □ Arrange workspace with good lighting
  □ Have multimeter ready for testing
  □ Ensure battery is fully charged

✓ DURING ASSEMBLY:
  □ Don't connect battery until everything is verified
  □ Use proper tools (correct screwdriver sizes)
  □ Keep components organized (use labeled containers)
  □ Take photos of your wiring for reference

✓ BEFORE POWERING ON:
  □ Double-check all ground connections
  □ Verify no short circuits with multimeter
  □ Confirm switch is in OFF position
  □ Remove robot from high surfaces

✓ FIRST POWER-ON:
  □ Listen for unusual sounds (buzzing = short circuit)
  □ Check for burning smell
  □ Monitor temperature of L298N (should stay cool)
  □ Be ready to disconnect battery immediately if issues

✓ DURING TESTING:
  □ Always hold robot up when testing motors
  □ Test obstacles carefully (soft objects first)
  □ Monitor battery voltage (should stay above 6.5V)
  □ Keep hands away from rotating parts

                      🔧 TROUBLESHOOTING QUICK GUIDE
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

PROBLEM: Arduino doesn't power on (no LED)
SOLUTIONS:
  → Check battery voltage with multimeter (should be 7-8V)
  → Verify power switch is ON
  → Check USB cable connection
  → Try pressing Arduino reset button

PROBLEM: Motors don't spin
SOLUTIONS:
  → Verify motor wires are connected to L298N OUT terminals
  → Check IN pins match code (2,3,4,5)
  → Test motor voltage (should be 7.4V)
  → Try swapping motor wires to reverse direction

PROBLEM: Servo jitters or won't respond
SOLUTIONS:
  → Check servo signal on Pin 9 (PWM)
  → Verify servo power supply (5V)
  → Add 100μF capacitor across servo power
  → Use separate 5V supply if needed

PROBLEM: Ultrasonic sensor gives wrong readings
SOLUTIONS:
  → Verify TRIG on Pin 7, ECHO on Pin 8
  → Test sensor at different distances (5cm, 30cm, etc.)
  → Ensure NewPing library is installed
  → Check Serial Monitor for distance values

PROBLEM: Line sensors don't detect line
SOLUTIONS:
  → Adjust sensor height to exactly 1.5-2cm
  → Calibrate potentiometers (test with multimeter)
  → Verify output on A0 and A1 in Serial Monitor
  → Ensure black/white contrast is clear

PROBLEM: Robot spins instead of moving forward
SOLUTIONS:
  → Motor speeds are unequal → adjust PWM values
  → Motors have different torque → swap motor positions
  → Wheels are misaligned → check wheel centering

PROBLEM: Robot drifts left or right
SOLUTIONS:
  → Adjust motor speed in code (ENA/ENB values)
  → Check wheel alignment (both should be parallel)
  → Verify motor mounting (must be parallel to each other)
  → Calibrate line sensors (may need adjustment)
