Important Safety Precautions

cut close to connector
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.
v
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 com-
ply 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:
1) Wires covered with PVC tubing
2) Double insulated wires
3) High voltage leads
5. Use specified insulating materials for hazardous live parts. Note especially:
1) Insulation Tape 3) Spacers 5) Barrier
2) PVC tubing 4) Insulation sheets for transistors
6. When replacing AC primary side components (transformers, power cords, noise blocking capacitors, etc.) wrap ends of wires securely about the terminals before soldering.
12. Crimp type wire connector In such cases as 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, if replacing the connectors is unavoidable, in or­der to prevent safety hazards, perform carefully and precisely according to the following steps.
1) Connector part number : E03830-001
2) Required tool : Connector crimping tool of the proper type
which will not damage insulated parts.
3) Replacement procedure
(1) Remove the old connector by cutting the wires at a point
close to the connector. Important : Do not reuse a connector (discard it).
Fig.3
(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.
15 mm
Fig.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.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 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.
Fig.4
(3) Align the lengths of the wires to be connected. Insert
the wires fully into the connector.

(4) As shown in Fig.6, 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.

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 table 1 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 table 1 below.
Chassis
Fig. 8
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 exposed accessi­ble parts. Use an AC voltmeter to measure across both terminals of load Z. See figure 9 and following table 2.
5. Grounding (Class 1 model only)
Confirm specified or lower grounding impedance between earth pin in AC inlet and externally exposed accessible parts (Video in, Video out, Audio in, Audio out or Fixing screw etc.).
Measuring Method:
Connect milli ohm meter between earth pin in AC inlet and exposed accessible parts. See figure 10 and grounding specifications.

PROPOSAL FOR APPLYING SHORT PROTECTION

• The Contents of Examination
As all the IC that is applied to VCR is controlled by IIC, mutual communication, if Vcc of IC is short or open with detecting ‘Acknowledge’ data of the specific IC according to each power(5V, 5VT) µ-COM gets unable to detect ‘ACK’ data.
µ-COM regards this case as abnormal one and if it can’t detect ‘ACK’ data for a certain time(3.5 sec) the sig­nal of ‘Power Control’ and ‘Timer Control’ are switched to ‘Low’. As a result POWER Switching generating heat and fire.

SERVICE NOTICE ON REPLACING EEPROM

In case that defective EEPROM of PAL models is replaced, to operate these sets from the initial state MP KEY must be repaired as well before delivering to the customer. If MP KEY isn’t repaired the setting of RF OUT channel or LANGUAGE might be different from that for cus­tormer’s country.
•MP KEY : In case of PAL VCR if holding the REC button on the front panel and the CLEAR button on the remote control handset for 5 ~ 7 seconds with power being switch all and no tapes, OK is displayed at FLD for FLD models and LED becomes on for LED CLOCK models. This is the state that initializing EEPROM is finished. (In case of PAL VCP if holding the REC button on the front panel and the MENU button on the remote control handset for 5 ~ 7 seconds with power being off and no tapes, All the LED DOTs become on. This is the state that initializing EEPROM is finished.)
•MP KEY's function : MP KEY sets EEPROM's data up to the initial state.
