1 Safety Precautions

1.1. General Guidelines

1. When servicing, observe the original lead dress. If a short circuit is found, replace all parts which have been overheated or damaged by the short circuit.

2. After servicing, see to it that all the protective devices such as insulation barriers, insulation papers shields are properly installed.

3. After servicing, make the following leakage current checks to prevent the customer from being exposed to shock hazards.

1.1.1. Leakage Current Cold Check

1. Unplug the AC cord and connect a jumper between the two prongs on the plug.

2. Measure the resistance value, with an ohmmeter, between the jumpered AC plug and each exposed metallic cabinet part on the equipment such as screwheads, connectors, control shafts, etc. When the exposed metallic part has a return path to the chassis, the reading should be between 1 MΩ and 5.2 MΩ.

When the exposed metal does not have a return path to the chassis, the reading must be

Figure 1

1.1.2. Leakage Current Hot Check

1. Plug the AC cord directly into the AC outlet. Do not use an isolation transformer for this check.

2. Connect a 1.5 kΩ, 10 watts resistor, in parallel with a 0.15 µF capacitor, between each exposed metallic part on the set and a good earth ground such as a water pipe, as shown in Figure 1.

3. Use an AC voltmeter, with 1000 ohms/volt 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 volts RMS. A leakage current tester (Simpson Model 229 or equivalent) may be used to make the hot checks, leakage current must not exceed 1/2 milliamp. In case a measurement is out of the limits specified, there is a possibility of a shock hazard, and the equipment should be repaired and rechecked before it is returned to the customer.

1.2. Safety Precaution for AC Power Supply Cord (For GS only)

Before use

Remove the connector cover.

How to replace the fuse

The location of the fuse differs according to the type of AC power plug (fi gures A and B). Confi rm the AC power plug fi tted and follow the instructions below. Illustrations may differ from actual AC power plug.

1. Open the fuse cover with a screwdriver.

Figure A Figure B

Fuse cover

2. Replace the fuse and close or attach the fuse cover.

Figure A Figure B

Fuse (5 ampere)

1.3. Before Use (For GCS/GS only)

Be sure to disconnect the AC Power Supply Cord before adjusting the voltage selector. Use a minus (-) screwdriver to set the voltage selector (on the rear panel) to the voltage setting for the area in which the unit will

be used. (If the power supply in your area is 110 V or 127 V, set to the “110 V~127 V” position.) Note that this unit will be seriously damaged if this setting is not made correctly. (There is no voltage selector for some countries,

the correct voltage is already set.)

1.4. Before Repair and Adjustment

Disconnect AC power, discharge Power Supply Capacitors C2254, C2256, C2288, C2289, C2632, C2721, C2725, C2811, C2815, C2817, C5512, C5513, C5514, C5711 (Not applicable for GC), C5712, C5713, C5715, C5790 (Not applicable for GC), C5805, C5806, C5807, C5914, C5916, C5917, C5929, C5930, C5971 (Not applicable for GC), C5977 through a 10Ω,1Wresistorto ground.

DO NOT SHORT-CIRCUIT DIRECTLY (with a screwdriver blade, for instance), as this may destroy solid state devices. After repairs are completed, restore power gradually using a variac, to avoid overcurrent. Current consumption at AC 110~127 V, 60 Hz in NO SIGNAL (Volume min, at CD mode) should be ~750 mA. [For GCS/GS only] Current consumption at AC 220~240 V, 50 Hz in NO SIGNAL (Volume min, at CD mode) should be ~500 mA.

1.5. Protection Circuitry

The protection circuitry may have operated if either of the following conditions are noticed:

•

• No sound is heard when the power is turned on.

• •

•

• Sound stops during a performance.

• •

The function of this circuitry is to prevent circuitry damage if, for example, the positive and negative speaker connection wires are “shorted”, or if speaker systems with an impedance less than the indicated rated impedance of the amplifier are used. If this occurs, follow the procedure outlines below:

1. Turn off the power.

2. Determine the cause of the problem and correct it.

3. Turn on the power once again after one minute.

Note :

When the protection circuitry functions, the unit will not operate unless the power is first turned off and then on again.

2 Prevention of Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) to

Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices

Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be damaged easily by electricity. Such components commonly are called Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices. Examples of typical ES devices are integrated circuits and some field-effect transistors and semiconductor “chip” components. The following techniques should be used to help reduce the incidence of component damage caused by electro static discharge (ESD).

1. Immediately before handling any semiconductor component or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off any ESD on your body by 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 aluminium foil, to prevent electrostatic charge build up 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 remover device. Some solder removal devices not classified as “anti-static (ESD protected)” can generate electrical charge 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, aluminium 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 body 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).

4 About Lead Free Solder (PbF)

4.1. Service caution based on legal restrictions

4.1.1. General description about Lead Free Solder (PbF)

The lead free solder has been used in the mounting process of all electrical components on the printed circuit boards used for this equipment in considering the globally environmental conservation.

The normal solder is the alloy of tin (Sn) and lead (Pb). On the other hand, the lead free solder is the alloy mainly consists of tin (Sn), silver (Ag) and Copper (Cu), and the melting point of the lead free solder is higher approx.30 degrees C (86°F) more than that of the normal s older.

Definition of PCB Lead Free Solder being used

The letter of “PbF” is printed either foil side or components side on the PCB using the lead free solder. (See right figure)

Service caution for repair work using Lead Free Solder (PbF)

•

• The lead free solder has to be used when repairing the equipment for which the lead free solder is used.

• •

(Definition: The letter of “PbF” is printed on the PCB using the lead free solder.)

•

• To put lead free solder, it should be well molten and mixed with the original lead free solder.

• •

•

• Remove the remaining lead free solder on the PCB cleanly for soldering of the new IC.

• •

•

• Since the melting point of the lead free solder is higher than that of the normal lead solder, it takes the longer time to melt

• •

the lead free solder.

•

• Use the soldering iron (more than 70W) equipped with the temperature control after setting the temperature at 350±30

• •

degrees C (662±86°F).

5 Handling Precautions for Traverse Unit

The laser diode used inside optical pickup could be destroyed due to static electricity as a potential difference is caused by electrostatic load discharged from clothes or human body. Handling the parts carefully to avoid electrostatic destruction during repair.

5.1. Handling Optical Pickup in Traverse Unit

1. Do not impact on optical pickup as the unit structurally uses an extremely precise technology.

2. Short-circuit the flexible cable of optical pickup remove from the circuit board using a short-circuit pin or clip in order to prevent laser diode from electrostatic destruction (Refer to Fig. 5.1 and Fig. 5.2)

3. Do not handle flexible cables forcibly as this may cause snapping. Handle the parts carefully (Refer to Fig. 5.1)

4. A new optical pickup is equipped with an anti-static flexible cable. After replacing and connecting to the flexible board, cut the anti-static flexible cable. (Refer to Fig. 5.1)

Fig. 5.1

5.2. Replacing Precautions for Optical Pickup Unit

Optical Pickup

The optical pickup by which part supply was carried out attaches the short clip to the flexible board for laser diode electrostatic discharge damage prevention. Please remove the short clip and be sure to check that the short land is open, before connecting. (Please remove solder, when the short land short-circuits.)

5.3. Grounding for Preventing Electrostatic Destruction

1. Human body grounding Use the anti-static wrist strap to discharge the static electricity accumulated in your body. (Refer to Fig. 5.2)

2. Work place grounding Place a conductive material (conductive sheet) or ironboard where optical pickup is placed. (Refer to Fig. 5.2)

Note :

Keep your clothes away from optical pickup as wrist strap does not release the static electricity charged in clothes.
