PRECAUTION
1.1SAFTY PRECAUTIONS
Prior to shipment from the factory, JVC products are strictly
inspected to conform 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.
1.1.1 Precautions during Servicing
(1) Locations requiring special caution are denoted by labels
and inscriptions on the cabinet, chassis and certain parts of
the product.When performing service, be sure to read and
comply with these and other cautionary notices appearing
in the operation and service manuals.
(2) Parts identified by the symbol and shaded ( ) parts
are critical for safety.
Replace only with specified part numbers.
NOTE :
Parts in this category also include those specified to
comply with X-ray emission standards for products
using cathode ray tubes and those specified for
compliance with various regulations regarding
spurious radiation emission.
(3) Fuse replacement caution notice.
Caution for continued protection against fire hazard.
Replace only with same type and rated fuse(s) as
specified.
(4) Use specified internal wiring. Note especially:
• Wires covered with PVC tubing
• Double insulated wires
• High voltage leads
(5) Use specified insulating materials for hazardous live parts.
Note especially:
• Insulation Tape
• PVC tubing
•Spacers
• Insulation sheets for transistors
•Barrier
(6) When replacing AC primary side components (transformers,
power cords, noise blocking capacitors, etc.) wrap ends of
wires securely about the terminals before soldering.
emission. Consequently, when servicing these products,
replace the cathode ray tubes and other parts with only the
specified parts. Under no circumstances attempt to modify
these circuits.Unauthorized modification can increase the
high voltage value and cause X-ray emission from the
cathode ray tube.
(12) Crimp type wire connectorIn such cases as when replacing
the power transformer in sets where the connections
between the power cord and power trans former primary
lead wires are performed using crimp type connectors, if
replacing the connectors is unavoidable, in order to prevent
safety hazards, perform carefully and precisely according
to the following steps.
• Connector part number :E03830-001
• Required tool : Connector crimping tool of the proper
type which will not damage insulated parts.
• Replacement procedure
a) Remove the old connector by cutting the wires at a
point close to the connector.Important : Do not
reuse a connector (discard it).
cut close to connector
Fig.1-1-3
b) 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.
15 mm
Fig.1-1-4
c) Align the lengths of the wires to be connected.
Insert the wires fully into the connector.
Metal sleeve
Fig.1-1-1
(7) Observe that wires do not contact heat producing parts
(heatsinks, oxide metal film resistors, fusible resistors, etc.)
(8) Check that replaced wires do not contact sharp edged or
pointed parts.
(9) When a power cord has been replaced, check that 10-15
kg of force in any direction will not loosen it.
Power cord
Fig.1-1-2
(10) Also check areas surrounding repaired locations.
(11) Products using cathode ray tubes (CRTs)In regard to such
products, the cathode ray tubes themselves, the high
voltage circuits, and related circuits are specified for
compliance with recognized codes pertaining to X-ray

1.1.2 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 original positions, Afterwards, perform the following
tests and confirm the specified values in order to verify
compliance with safety standards.
(1) Insulation resistance test
Confirm the specified insulation resistance or greater
between power cord plug prongs and externally exposed
parts of the set (RF terminals, antenna terminals, video and
audio input and output terminals, microphone jacks,
earphone jacks, etc.).See table 1 below.
(2) Dielectric strength test
Confirm specified dielectric strength or greater between
power cord plug prongs and exposed accessible parts of
the set (RF terminals, antenna terminals, video and audio
input and output terminals, microphone jacks, earphone
jacks, etc.). See Fig.1-1-11 below.
(3) Clearance distance
When replacing primary circuit components, confirm
specified clearance distance (d), (d') between soldered
terminals, and between terminals and surrounding metallic
parts. See Fig.1-1-11 below.

(4) Leakage current test
Confirm specified or lower leakage current between 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.).
Measuring Method : (Power ON)Insert load Z between
earth ground/power cord plug prongs and externally

DISASSEMBLY
3.1BEFORE ASSEMBLY AND DISASSEMBLY
3.1.1 Precautions
• Be sure to disconnect the power supply unit prior to mounting
and soldering of parts.
• Prior to removing a component part that needs to disconnect
its connector(s) and its screw(s), first disconnect the wire(s)
from the connector(s), and then remove the screw(s).
• When connecting/disconnecting wires, pay enough attention
not to damage the connectors.
• When inserting the flat wire to the connector, pay attention to
the direction of the flat wire.
• Be careful in removing the parts to which some spacer or
shield is attached for reinforcement or insulation.
• When replacing chip parts (especially IC parts), first remove
the solder completely to prevent peeling of the pattern.
• Tighten screws properly during the procedures. Unless
specified otherwise, tighten screws at a torque of 0.196N
·cm). However, 0.196N·m (2.0kgf·cm) is a value at the
(2.0kgf
time of production. At the time of service, perform the
procedure at a torque 10% less than 0.196N
·m (2.0kgf·cm).
(See "SERVICE NOTE" as for tightening torque.)

3.2.5 ASSEMBLY AND DISASSEMBLY OF [16] OP BLOCK ASSEMBLY AND CCD BOARD ASSEMBLY
zPrecautions
(1) Take care in handling the CCD IMAGE SENSOR, OP
LPF and lens components when performing maintenance etc., especially with regard to surface contamination, attached dust or scratching. If fingerprints are
present on the surface they should be wiped away using
either a silicon paper, clean chamois or the cleaning
cloth.
(2) The CCD IMAGE SENSOR may have been shipped with
a protective sheet attached to the transmitting glass.
When replacing the CCD IMAGE SENSOR, do not peel
off this sheet from the new part until immediately before
it is mounted in the OP BLOCK ASSEMBLY.
(3) The orientation of the OP LPF is an important factor for
installation. If there is some marking on the OP LPF, be
sure to note it down before removing and to reassemble
it very carefully as it was referring to the marking.

<NOTE>
㧝㧖 (This mark shows where to attach the screws) : Do not reuse the screws because the screw lock bond was applied to prevent the screws from loosening.
Prepare the specified screws and use them in place of the removed screws.
㧞Tightening torque for the screws
There are setting limits of the torque value for the torque driver. If the value exceeds the setting value, take it as a rough measurement (reference value),
and tighten the screw manually.
The specified torque value is a recommended value of the initial assembly. Therefore, set the value below the specified torque value in the assembling procedure.
Be careful not to break either the screws or the screw holes.
In the event that the set enters the emergency mode as it is
loaded with a cassette tape and the cassette tape cannot be
ejected with the EJECT button, manually, take it out of the set
according to the following procedure.
NOTE :
• If the mechanism comes into the unloading mode as the cassette tape is not held by hand, it results in tape damage.
(1) Disconnect the set from the power source.
(2) Remove the LOWER CASE ASSEMBLY and TOP OPE
UNIT (see Fig.FA2, page 8).
(3) Connect a jumper wire to each pole of the LOADING
MOTOR as shown by the magnified view (Fig. 5-2-1).
BATTERY
(DC1.5V)
(4) While holding down the cassette housing by hand, con-
nect the jumper wires to a battery to run the mechanism
to the EJECT position four unloading. If this unloading
operation is performed as the cassette housing is not
held down by hand, the front lid of the cassette may damage the tape when it is ejected.
(5) For taking in the slack of the tape, run the mechanism to
the EJECT position as the front lid of the cassette is left
open, and turn the TAKE-UP GEAR in the forward direction to wind up the tape. After confirming that the tape
has completely been wound up and the supply reel is
idling, take the cassette tape out of the cassette housing.
