IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Prior to shipment from the factory, our products are strictly inspected for recognized product safety and electrical codes of the countries in which they are to be sold. However, in order to maintain such compliance, it is equally important to implement the following precautions when a set is being serviced.

Safety Precautions for TV Circuit

1.Before returning an instrument to the customer, always make a safety check of the entire instrument, including, but not limited to, the following items:

a.Be sure that no built-in protective devices are defective and have been defeated during servicing.

(1)Protective shields are provided on this chassis to protect both the technician and the customer. Correctly replace all missing protective shields, including any removed for servicing convenience.

(2)When reinstalling the chassis and/or other assembly in the cabinet, be sure to put back in place all protective devices, including but not limited to, nonmetallic control knobs, insulating fishpapers, adjustment and compartment covers/shields, and isolation resistor/capacitor networks. Do not operate this instrument or permit it to be operated without all protective devices correctly installed and functioning. Servicers who defeat safety features or fail to perform safety checks may be liable for any resulting damage.

b.Be sure that there are no cabinet openings through which an adult or child might be able to insert their fingers and contact a hazardous voltage. Such openings include, but are not limited to, (1) spacing between the picture tube and the cabinet mask, (2) excessively wide cabinet ventilation slots, and (3) an improperly fitted and/or incorrectly secured cabinet back cover.

c.Antenna Cold Check - With the instrument AC plug removed from any AC source, connect an electrical jumper across the two AC plug prongs. Place the instrument AC switch in the on position. Connect one lead of an ohmmeter to the AC plug prongs tied together and touch the other ohmmeter lead in turn to each tuner antenna input exposed terminal screw and, if applicable, to the coaxial connector. If the measured resistance is less than 1.0 megohm or greater than 5.2 megohm, an abnormality exists that must be corrected before the instrument is returned to the customer. Repeat this test with the instrument AC switch in the off position.

d.Leakage Current Hot Check - With the instrument completely reassembled, plug the AC line cord directly into a 120V AC outlet. (Do not use an isolation transformer during this test.) Use a leak-

age current tester or a metering system that complies with American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C101.1 Leakage Current for Appliances and Underwriters Laboratories (UL) 1410, (50.7). With the instrument AC switch first in the on position and then in the off position, measure from a known earth ground (metal water pipe, conduit, etc.) to all exposed metal parts of the instrument (antennas, handle brackets, metal cabinet, screw heads, metallic overlays, control shafts, etc.), especially any exposed metal parts that offer an electrical return path to the chassis. Any current measured must not exceed 0.5 milli-ampere. Reverse the instrument power cord plug in the outlet and repeat the test.

ANY MEASUREMENTS NOT WITHIN THE LIMITS SPECIFIED HEREIN INDICATE A POTENTIAL SHOCK HAZARD THAT MUST BE ELIMINATED BEFORE RETURNING THE INSTRUMENT TO THE CUSTOMER OR BEFORE CONNECTING THE ANTENNA OR ACCESSORIES.

e.X-Radiation and High Voltage Limits - Because the picture tube is the primary potential source of X-radiation in solid-state TV receivers, it is specially constructed to prohibit X-radiation emissions. For continued X-radiation protection, the replacement picture tube must be the same type as the original. Also, because the picture tube shields and mounting hardware perform an X-radiation protection function, they must be correctly in place. High voltage must be measured each time servic-

1-2-1

T6600SFTY

ing is performed that involves B+, horizontal deflection or high voltage. Correct operation of the X-radiation protection circuits also must be reconfirmed each time they are serviced. (X-radiation protection circuits also may be called "horizontal disable" or "hold down.") Read and apply the high voltage limits and, if the chassis is so equipped, the X-radiation protection circuit specifications given on instrument labels and in the Product Safety & X-Radiation Warning note on the service data chassis schematic. High voltage is maintained within specified limits by close tolerance safety-re- lated components/adjustments in the high-voltage circuit. If high voltage exceeds specified limits, check each component specified on the chassis schematic and take corrective action.

2.Read and comply with all caution and safety-relat- ed notes on or inside the receiver cabinet, on the receiver chassis, or on the picture tube.

3.Design Alteration Warning - Do not alter or add to the mechanical or electrical design of this TV receiver. Design alterations and additions, including, but not limited to circuit modifications and the addition of items such as auxiliary audio and/or video output connections, might alter the safety characteristics of this receiver and create a hazard to the user. Any design alterations or additions will void the manufacturer's warranty and may make you, the servicer, responsible for personal injury or property damage resulting therefrom.

4.Picture Tube Implosion Protection Warning -

The picture tube in this receiver employs integral implosion protection. For continued implosion protection, replace the picture tube only with one of the same type number. Do not remove, install, or otherwise handle the picture tube in any manner without first putting on shatterproof goggles equipped with side shields. People not so equipped must be kept safely away while picture tubes are handled. Keep the picture tube away from your body. Do not handle the picture tube by its neck. Some "in-line" picture tubes are equipped with a permanently attached deflection yoke; because of potential hazard, do not try to remove such "permanently attached" yokes from the picture tube.

5.Hot Chassis Warning -

a.Some TV receiver chassis are electrically connected directly to one conductor of the AC power cord and maybe safety-serviced without an isolation transformer only if the AC power plug is inserted so that the chassis is connected to the ground side of the AC power source. To confirm that the AC power plug is inserted correctly, with an AC voltmeter, measure between the chassis and a known

earth ground. If a voltage reading in excess of 1.0V is obtained, remove and reinsert the AC power plug in the opposite polarity and again measure the voltage potential between the chassis and a known earth ground.

b.Some TV receiver chassis normally have 85V AC(RMS) between chassis and earth ground regardless of the AC plug polarity. This chassis can be safety-serviced only with an isolation transformer inserted in the power line between the receiver and the AC power source, for both personnel and test equipment protection.

c.Some TV receiver chassis have a secondary ground system in addition to the main chassis ground. This secondary ground system is not isolated from the AC power line. The two ground systems are electrically separated by insulation material that must not be defeated or altered.

6.Observe original lead dress. Take extra care to assure correct lead dress in the following areas: a. near sharp edges, b. near thermally hot parts-be sure that leads and components do not touch thermally hot parts, c. the AC supply, d. high voltage, and e. antenna wiring. Always inspect in all areas for pinched, out of place, or frayed wiring. Check AC power cord for damage.

7.Components, parts, and/or wiring that appear to have overheated or are otherwise damaged should be replaced with components, parts, or wiring that meet original specifications. Additionally, determine the cause of overheating and/or damage and, if necessary, take corrective action to remove any potential safety hazard.

8.Product Safety Notice - Some electrical and mechanical parts have special safety-related characteristics which are often not evident from visual inspection, nor can the protection they give necessarily be obtained by replacing them with components rated for higher voltage, wattage, etc.. Parts that have special safety characteristics are identified by a ( !) on schematics and in parts lists. Use of a substitute replacement that does not have the same safety characteristics as the recommended replacement part might create shock, fire, and/or other hazards. The Product's Safety is under review continuously and new instructions are issued whenever appropriate. Prior to shipment from the factory, our products are strictly inspected to confirm with the recognized product safety and electrical codes of the countries in which they are to be sold. However, in order to maintain such compliance, it is equally important to implement the following precautions when a set is being serviced.

1-2-2

T6600SFTY

Precautions during Servicing

A.Parts identified by the ( !) symbol are critical for safety.

Replace only with part number specified.

B.In addition to safety, other parts and assemblies are specified for conformance with regulations applying to spurious radiation. These must also be replaced only with specified replacements.

Examples: RF converters, RF cables, noise blocking capacitors, and noise blocking filters, etc.

C.Use specified internal wiring. Note especially:

1)Wires covered with PVC tubing

2)Double insulated wires

3)High voltage leads

D.Use specified insulating materials for hazardous live parts. Note especially:

1)Insulation Tape

2)PVC tubing

3)Spacers

4)Insulators for transistors.

E.When replacing AC primary side components (transformers, power cord, etc.), wrap ends of wires securely about the terminals before soldering.

F.Observe that the wires do not contact heat producing parts (heatsinks, oxide metal film resistors, fusible resistors, etc.)

G.Check that replaced wires do not contact sharp edged or pointed parts.

H.When a power cord has been replaced, check that 5~6 kg of force in any direction will not loosen it.

I.Also check areas surrounding repaired locations.

J.Use care that foreign objects (screws, solder droplets, etc.) do not remain inside the set.

K.Crimp type wire connector

When replacing the power transformer in sets where the connections between the power cord and power transformer primary lead wires are performed using crimp type connectors, in order to prevent shock hazards, perform carefully and precisely the following steps.

Replacement procedure

1)Remove the old connector by cutting the wires at a point close to the connector.

Important: Do not re-use a connector (discard it).

2)Strip about 15 mm of the insulation from the ends of the wires. If the wires are stranded, twist the strands to avoid frayed conductors.

3)Align the lengths of the wires to be connected. Insert the wires fully into the connector.

4)Use the crimping tool to crimp the metal sleeve at the center position. Be sure to crimp fully to the complete closure of the tool.

L.When connecting or disconnecting the VCR connectors, first, disconnect the AC plug from AC supply socket.

Instructions for Handling

Semiconductors

Electrostatic breakdown of the semiconductors may occur due to a potential difference caused by electrostatic charge during unpacking or repair work.

Ground for Human Body

Be sure to wear a grounding band (1MΩ) that is properly grounded to remove any static electricity that may be charged on the body.

Ground for Work Bench

Be sure to place a conductive sheet or copper plate with proper grounding (1MΩ) on the work bench or other surface, where the semiconductors are to be placed. Because the static electricity charge on the clothing will not escape through the body grounding band, be careful to avoid contacting semiconductors to clothing.
