PRODUCT SAFETY NOTICE
Many electrical and mechanical parts in television receivers have special safety related characteristics. These characteristics are often not evident from visual inspection nor can the protection afforded by them necessarily be obtained by
using replacement components rated for higher voltage, wattage, etc.
Replacement parts which have special safety characteristics are identified in this service manual.
Electrical components having such features are identified by shading on the schematic diagram and by bold type in
the parts list of this service manual. Therefore, the replacement for any safety part should be identical in value
and characteristics.

NOTICE:Observe all cautions and safety related notes located inside the receiver cabinet and on the
receiver chassis.
WARNING:
1.Operation of this receiver outside the cabinet or with the cover removed presents a shock hazard
from the receiver's power supplies. Work on the receiver should not be attempted by anyone who is
not thoroughly familiar with the precautions necessary when working on high voltage equipment.
2.When service is required, observe the original lead dress. Extra precaution should be taken to
assure correct lead dress in the high voltage area. Where a short-circuit has occurred, replace those
components that indicate evidence of overheating.
WARNING ... RISK OF EYE INJURY
Do not look into the light source, lens or mirror when operating the TV.
Leakage current check:
Before returning the receiver to the customer, it is recommended that leakage current be measured according to the
following methods.
1. Cold Check
With the alternating current (AC) plug removed from the AC source, place a jumper across the two AC plug
prongs. Connect one lead of an ohm meter to the AC plug and touch the other lead to each exposed metal part
(i.e. antennas, handle bracket, metal cabinet, screw heads, metal overlay, control shafts, etc.), particularly any
exposed metal part that has a return path to the chassis. The resistance of the exposed metal parts having a
return path to the chassis should be a minimum of 1Mega Ohm. Any resistance below this value indicates an
abnormal condition and requires corrective action.
2. Hot Check ...Use the circuit shown below to perform the hot check test.
1. Keep switch S1 open and connect the receiver to the measuring circuit. Immediately after
connection, and with the switching devices of the receiver in their operating positions, measure the
leakage current for both positions of switch S2.
2. Close switch S1, energizing the receiver. Immediately after closing switch S1, and with the
switching devices of the receiver in their operating positions, measure the leakage current for both
positions of switch S2. Repeat the current measurements of items 1 and 2 after the receiver has
reached thermal stabilization. The leakage current must not exceed 0.5 milliampere (mA).
wire ties are used in these models. Lift the tab to release the wire tie. During reassembly, re-use wire ties to
ensure all wiring harnesses are properly bundled and
dressed.

1. While wearing soft cotton gloves, loosen the
sides of the Diamond Shield by pressing a small
plastic card (the size of a standard credit card or a
clean, plastic, putty knife) into the middle of the
side slot. The Diamond Shield side will snap out
of the top middle and bottom clips. Loosen both
sides before proceeding to step 2.
2. After the sides are free, gently push down on the
top of the Diamond Shield. It will slide out of the
top channel.
3 Carefully pull the screen up to remove it from the
bottom channel. Store the Diamond Shield in a clean,
dust free area, where it will not be scratched.
To Install the Diamond Shield:
4. Slide the Diamond Shield into the bottom channel,
making sure it fits securely.
5. Press gently on the top of the Diamond Shield to
slightly bow the screen towards you. Insert the
top of the Diamond Shield into the top channel. It
should fit securely.
6. At each side, gently press the top, middle and
bottom of the Diamond Shield to snap it back into
place.

WARNING
Sharp edges! Always wear gloves to
handle, lift, install and remove the
Diamond Shield.
CAUTION:Wear gloves when handling the Lenticular Screen and Fresnel Lens.
This prevents cuts and finger prints. Do not place Fresnel Lens in the sun.
This may cause fire and heat related injuries.
Lenticular Screen and Fresnel Lens Removal
1. Remove the screen assembly shown in the Cabinet Disassembly procedure.
2. Remove the four screws (a) to remove the bottom of the SCREEN-FRAME-BOTTOM .
3. Carefully slide the Lenticular Screen and Fresnel Lens combination from the Screen Frame assembly.
Note: When separating the Lenticular Screen from the Fresnel Lens, use caution
while prying the Screen and Lens apart. Use a slot type screw driver, and
remove the pressure sensitive double sided tape.
Note: Store the Lenticular Screen and Fresnel Lens in a cool dry place. High heat and humidity may
deform the Lenticular Screen and Fresnel Lens.
1. Apply double coated tape (Part #LENS-TAPE) along the top rear edge of the Lenticular Screen, as shown
below. Refer to the table below for the tape length.
2. Place the Fresnel Lens on top of the Lenticular Screen and apply pressure at the top edge
to bond them together.
3. Reverse the Screen Removal procedure to insert the screens in the Screen Frame Assembly.

Each of the external inputs has its own Audio/Video Memory. A change in an A/V setting at a specific input is
stored in memory for that specific input.
B. A/V Reset
The AV Memory Reset in the user’s menu initializes the selected input’s A/V Memory.
Remote Control Operational Modes
There are two Remote Hand Unit Operational Modes, “Standard” and “NetCommand™”. The Remote is initially
in the “Standard” mode. The “NetCommand” mode is used when controlling Home Theater devices using
NetCommand. To change the Remote Operational Mode:
• Set the Remote to the TV Layer
• Point the Remote away from the TV.
• To change to “Netcommand” ... Hold the “Power” button and press “9-3-5” in sequence.
• To change to “Standard” ... Hold the “Power” button and press “0-0-0” in sequence.
The front panel LEDs provide an indication of the sets operation, and the possible cause of a malfunction. There
are three front panel LEDs, “Power”, “Status” and “Lamp”. Which LED is lit, the color, and whether it is blinking or
steady indicate the current status, or a possible malfunction.
Note: The TV must be in “Shut Down” and not manually switched Off, to perform the Error Code Opera-
tional Check. When the TV is switched Off, the code automatically resets to “12” No Error.
Press the front panel “DEVICE” and “MENU” buttons at the same time, and hold for 5 seconds to
activate the Error Code Operational Check. The LED will then flash denoting a two digit Code.
Note: The front panel buttons must be used, NOT those on the Remote Control.
• The number of flashes indicates the value of the MSD (tens digit) of the Error Code.
• The flashing then pauses for approximately 1/2 second.
• The LED then flashes indicating the value of the LSD (ones digit) of the Error Code.
Example: If the Error Code is “32”, the LED will flash three times, pause, and then flash two times.
• The Error Code is repeated a total of 5 times.
4. Error Codes
The Error Code designations are listed below:
