Maneuverable recesses ( ) maneuverable by a disengagement jig ( ) from front are provided at positions on the front surface of each lock ( ) retracted from the locked terminal fitting ( ) and within a width range of a locking surface of the lock ( ) engageable with the terminal fitting ( ) and located more toward the base end of the locking portion than the locking surface.
