IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Product Safety Notice
Some electrical and mechanical parts have special
safety-related char acteristics which are often not evi dent 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 sp ecial safety characteristi cs 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 Prod uct’s Safety is under review continuously and new instructions are issued whenever
appropriate. Prior to shipment from the factory, our
products are carefully inspected to confirm with the
recognized product s afety and electrical codes of the
countries in which they are to be sold. However, in
order to maintain su ch com plian ce, it is equal ly impor tant to implement the following precautions when a set
is being serviced.
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 spur ious rad iation. T hese m ust also be
replaced only with specified re pla ce men ts .
Examples: RF converters, RF c ables, noise blocking capacitors, and noi se 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 hea t produc-
ing parts (heatsinks, oxid e metal fi lm resis tors, fus ible resistors, etc.).
G. Check that replaced wires do not contact sharp
edges or pointed parts.
H. When a power cord has been replac ed, chec k that
5 - 6 kg of force in any direction will not loosen it.
I. Also check areas surrounding repaired locations.
J. Be careful that foreign objects (screws, solder
droplets, etc.) do not remain inside the set.
K. Crimp type wire connector
The power transformer uses crimp type connectors
which connect the power cord and the primary side
of the transformer. When replacing the transformer,
follow these steps carefully and precisely to prevent shock hazards.
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 t he insulation fr om 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 a crimping tool to crimp the metal sleeve at its
center. Be sure to crimp ful ly to the complete closure of the tool.
L. When connecting or disconnecting the internal con-
nectors, first, dis connect the AC plug from th e AC
outlet.
E1-3-1
Safety Check after Servicing
Examine the area surrounding the repaired location for
damage or deterioration. Obse rve that screws, parts,
and wires have been returned to their original positions. Afterwards, do the following tests and confirm
the specified values to verify compliance with safety
standards.
1. Clearance Distance
When replacing primary circuit components, confirm
specified clearan ce distance (d) and (d’) between soldered terminals, and between terminals and surrounding metallic parts. (See Fig. 1)

2. Leakage Current Test
Confirm the specified (or lower) leakage current
between B (earth ground, power cord plug prongs)
and externally exposed accessible parts (RF terminals, antenna terminals, video and audio input and
output terminals, microphone jacks, earphone jacks,
etc.) is lower than or equal to the specified value in the
table below.
Measuring Method (Power ON) :
Insert load Z between B (earth ground, power cord
plug prongs) and exposed accessible parts. Use an
AC voltmeter to measure acros s the termi nals of l oad
Z. See Fig. 2 and the following table.

Instructions for Handling Semi-conductors
Electrostatic breakdown of the semi-conductors may
occur due to a poten tial difference caus ed by electrostatic charge during unpacking or repair work.
1. Ground for Human Body
Be sure to wear a ground ing b and ( 1MΩ) that is properly grounded to re m ov e an y sta tic el ec tric it y that may
be charged on the body.
2. Ground for Workbench
(1) Be sure to place a conductive sheet or copper plate
with proper grounding (1 MΩ) on the workbench or
other surface, where the semi-conductors are to be
placed. Because the static electricity charge on
clothing will no t escape through the body grounding band, be carefu l to avoid contactin g semi-conductors with your clothing.
