1. IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
There are special components used in this equipment
which are important for safety. These parts are marked by
in the Schematic Diagrams, Circuit Board Layout,
Exploded Views and Replacement Parts List. It is essential
that these critical parts should be replaced with
manufacturer’s specified parts to prevent X-RADIATION,
shock, fire, or other hazards. Do not modify the original
design without permission of manufacturer.
2. An Isolation Transformer should always be used during the
servicing of Combination TV/DVD whose chassis is not
isolated from the AC power line. Use a transformer of
adequate power rating as this protects the technician from
accidents resulting in personal injury from electrical shocks.
It will also protect Combination TV/DVD from being
damaged by accidental shorting that may occur during
servicing.
3. When servicing, observe the original lead dress, especially
the lead dress in the high voltage circuits. If a short circuit is
found, replace all parts which have been overheated or
damaged by the short circuit.
4. After servicing, see to it that all the protective devices such
as insulation barriers, insulation papers, shield, and
isolation R-C combinations are properly installed.
5. Before turning the receiver on, measure the resistance
between B+ line and chassis ground. Connect (-) side of an
ohmmeter to the B+ lines, and (+) side to chassis ground.
Each line should have more resistance than specified, as
follows :
6. When the TV set is not used for a long period of time,
unplug the power cord from the AC outlet.
7. Potentials, as high as 33.0 kV is present when this TV set
is in operation. Operation of the TV set without the rear
cover involves the danger of a shock hazard from the TV
set power supply. Servicing should not be attempted by
anyone who is not thoroughly familiar with the precautions
necessary when working on high voltage equipment.
Always discharge the anode of the picture tube to the CRT
ground of receiver before handling the tube.
8. After servicing make the following leakage current checks to
prevent the customer from being exposed to shock
hazards.
1. Unplug the AC cord and connect a jumper between the two
prongs on the plug.
2. For physically operated power switches, turn power on.
Otherwise skip step 2.
3. Measure the resistance value, with an ohmmeter, between
the jumpered AC plug and each exposed metallic cabinet
part on the receiver, such as screwheads, connectors, etc.
When the exposed metallic part has a return path to the
chassis, the reading should be between 1 MΩ and 12 MΩ.
When the exposed metal does not have a return path to the
chassis, the reading must be infinity.
1.3. LEAKAGE CURRENT HOT
CHECK
1. Plug the AC cord directly into the AC outlet.
Do not use a isolation transformer for this check.
2. Connect a 1.5 kΩ, 10 W resistor, in parallel with a 0.15 µF
capacitor, between each exposed metallic part on the set
and a good earth ground, as shown in Figure 1.
3. Use an AC voltmeter, with 1 kΩ/V or more sensitivity, to
measure the potential across the resistor.
4. Check each exposed metallic part, and measure the
voltage at each point.
5. Reverse the AC plug in the AC outlet and repeat each of the
above measurements.
6. The potential at any point should not exceed 0.75 V RMS.
A leakage current tester (Simpson Model 229 equivalent)
may be used to make the hot checks. Leakage current must
not exceed 1/2 mA. In case a measurement is outside of
the limits specified, there is a possibility of shock hazard,
and the receiver should be repaired and rechecked before
it is returned to the custom er.
1. The potential source of X-Radiation in TV sets is the High
Voltage section and the picture tube.
2. When using a picture tube test fixture for service, ensure
that the fixture is capable of handling 33.0 kV without
causing X-Radiation.
NOTE:
It is important to use an accurate periodically calibrated high
voltage meter.
1. Reduce the brightness to minimum.
2. Set the SERVICE switch to SERVICE.
3. Measure the High Voltage. The meter reading should
indicate 28.0 kV±1.5 kV (For model with 20 inch CRT), 31.0
kV±2.0 kV (For model with 27 inch CRT).
If the meter indication is out of tolerance, immediate service
and correction is required to prevent the possibility of
premature component failure.
4. To prevent an X-Radiation possibly, it is essential to use the
specified picture tube.
2.1. HORIZONTAL OSCILLATOR
DISABLE CIRCUIT TEST
SERVICE WARNING :
The test must be made as a final check before set is returned
to the customer.
2.2. REPAIR PROCEDURES OF
HORIZONTAL OSCILLATOR
DISABLE CIRCUIT
1. Connect a DC voltmeter between capacitor C513 (+) on the
Main circuit board and chassis ground.
2. If approximately +21.5 V (For model with 20 inch CRT),
+20.0 V (For model with 27 inch CRT) is not present at that
point when 120 V AC is applied, find the cause. Check
R508, R503, R5504, D5505, D503, C513 and C5507.
3. Carefully check above specified parts and related circuits
and parts. When the circuit is repaired, try the horizontal
oscillator disable circuit test again.
2.3. CIRCUIT EXPLANATION
2.3.1. HORIZONTAL OSCILLATOR
DISABLE CIRCUIT
The positive DC voltage, supplied from the D503 cathode for
monitoring high voltage, is applied to the IC5301 Pin 11 through
R508, R503 and R5504. Under normal conditions, the voltage
at IC5301 Pin 11 is less than approx. 6 V. If the high voltage at
Flyback Transformer Pin 5 exceeds the specified voltage, the
positive DC voltage which is supplied from the D503 cathode
also increases. The increased voltage is applied to IC5301 Pin
11 through R508, R503 and R5504. Due to the increased
voltage at IC5301 Pin 11, the horizontal oscillator frequency
increases, the picture goes out of horizontal sync, the beam
current decreases and the picture become dark in order to
keep X-radiation under specification.
CONFIRMATION OF X-RAY MOVEMENT
1. Turn off TV set.
2. Connect the circuit below between TP554 and TP553 on
the Deflection C.B.A.
Figure 2
3. Turn on SW1 and then turn on the set. Confirm that the
picture is on the screen properly.
4. Confirm that the picture goes out of horizontal sync while
getting down by varying VR.
5. If this does not occur, it means that X-ray protect circuit is
not operating. Further confirmation and repair is required.

2.4. LASER PRODUCT
CLASS I LASER PRODUCT
· This equipment is certified to comply with DHHS Rules 21
CFR Chapter 1, Subchapter J in effect as of date of
manufacture. (Only for U.S.A.)
This equipment is classified as a Class I (Class 1) level LASER
Product and there is no hazardous LASER radiation with the
safety protection.
Caution:
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of
procedures other than those specified herein may result in

Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be damaged easily by static electricity. Such components commonly are called
Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices. Examples of typical ES devices are integrated circuits and some field-effect transistors are
semiconductor "chip" components. The following techniques should be used to help reduce the incidence of component damage
caused by electrostatic discharge (ESD).
1. Immediately before handling any semiconductor component or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off any ESD on your
body touching a known earth ground. Alternatively, obtain and wear a commercially available discharging ESD wrist strap, which
should be removed for potential shock reasons prior to applying power to the unit under test.
2. After removing an electrical assembly equipped with ES devices, place the assembly on a conductive surface such as
aluminum foil, to prevent electrostatic charge buildup or exposure of the assembly.
3. Use only a grounded-tip soldering iron to solder or unsolder ES devices.
4. Use only an anti-static solder removal device. Some solder removal devices not classified as "anti-static (ESD protected)" can
generate electrical charge sufficient to damage ES devices.
5. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ES devices.
6. Do not remove a replacement ES device from its protective package until immediately before you are ready to install it. (Most
replacement ES devices are packaged with leads electrically shorted together by conductive foam, aluminum foil or comparable
conductive material).
7. Immediately before removing the protective material from the leads of a replacement ES device, touch the protective material
to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will be installed.
CAUTION:
Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or circuit, and observe all other safety precautions.
8. Minimize bodily motions when handling unpackaged replacement ES devices. (Otherwise harmless motion such as the
brushing together of your clothes fabric or the lifting of your foot from a carpeted floor can generate static electricity (ESD)
sufficient to damage an ES device).
"NOTEtoCATVsysteminstaller:
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for

from the AC power line. Use a transformer of adequate power
rating as this protects the technician from accidents resulting in
personal injury from electrical shocks. It will also protect
Combination TV/DVD from being damaged by accidental
shorting that may occur during servicing.
Also, when troubleshooting the above type of Power Supply
Circuit, a variable isolation transformer is required in order to
increase the input voltage slowly.
