CAUTION FOR SAFETY IN PERFORMING REPAIR
1-1 LASER BEAM SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
This DVD player uses a pickup that emits a laser beam.
Do not look directly at the laser beam coming
from the pickup or allow it to strike against
your skin.
The laser beam is emitted from the location shown in the figure. When checking the laser diode, be sure to
keep your eyes at least 30cm away from the pickup lens when the diode is turned on. Do not look directly at the
laser beam.
Caution: Use of controls and adjustments, or doing procedures other than those specified herein, may result in
hazardous radiation exposure.

1-2 IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1-2-1 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 carefully 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 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 produc-
ing parts (heatsinks, oxide metal film resistors, fusible resistors, etc.).
G. Check that replaced wires do not contact sharp
edges 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. 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 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 a crimping tool to crimp the metal sleeve at
its center. Be sure to crimp fully to the complete
closure of the tool.
L. When connecting or disconnecting the internal
connectors, first, disconnect the AC plug from the
AC outlet.
1-2
1-2-3 Safety Check after Servicing
Examine the area surrounding the repaired location
for damage or deterioration. Observe 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 clearance distance (d) and (d’) between soldered terminals, and between terminals and surrounding metallic parts. (See Fig. 1-2-1)
Table 1-2-1 : Ratings for selected area
AC Line Voltage Clearance Distance (d), (d’)
220 to 240 V
Note: This table is unofficial and for reference only.
Be sure to confirm the precise values.
≥ 3 mm(d)
≥ 6 mm(d’)
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 across the terminals of load
Z. See Fig. 1-2-2 and the following table.

1-3-4 Instructions for Handling
Semi-conductors
Electrostatic breakdown of the semi-conductors may
occur due to a potential difference caused by electrostatic charge during unpacking or repair work.
1. 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.
2. Ground for Workbench
(1) Be sure to place a conductive sheet or copper
plate with proper grounding (1MΩ) on the workbench or other surface, where the semi-conductors are to be placed. Because the static electricity
charge on clothing will not escape through the
body grounding band, be careful to avoid contacting semi-conductors with your clothing.

1-3-2 Instructions for Connectors
1. When you connect or disconnect the FFC (Flexible
Foil Connector) cable, be sure to first disconnect
the AC cord.
2. FFC (Flexible Foil Connector) cable should be
inserted parallel into the connector, not at an
angle.

Loading the Batteries
1. Open the battery compartment
cover.
2. Insert two AA batteries, with
each one oriented correctly.
3. Close the cover.
Cautions On Batteries
Use “AA” (R6P) batteries in this remote control unit.
Replace the batteries with new ones approximately
once a year, though this depends on the frequency
with which the remote control unit is used.
If the remote control unit does not operate from
close to the main unit, replace the batteries with
new ones, even if less then a year has passed.
included battery is only for verifying operation.
The
Replace it with a new battery as soon as possible.
When inserting the batteries, be careful to do so in
the proper direction, following the and marks
in the remote control unit’s battery compartment.
To prevent damage or battery fluid leakage:
Do not use a new battery with an old one.
Do not use two different types of batteries such
as alkaline and manganese.
Do not short-circuit, disassemble, heat or dispose
of batteries in flames.
Remove the batteries when not planning to use the
remote control unit for a long period of time.
If the batteries should leak, carefully wipe off the
fluid from the inside of the battery compartment,
then insert new batteries.
