All ICs and many other semi-conductors are
susceptible to electrostatic discharges (ESD).
Careless handling during repair can reduce life
drastically.
When repairing, make sure that you are
connected with the same potential as the mass
of the set via a wrist wrap with resistance.
Keep components and tools also at this
potential.
F
ATTENTION
Tous les IC et beaucoup d’autres
semi-conducteurs sont sensibles aux
décharges statiques (ESD).
Leur longévité pourrait être considérablement
écourtée par le fait qu’aucune précaution n’est
prise à leur manipulation.
Lors de réparations, s’assurer de bien être relié
au même potentiel que la masse de l’appareil et
enfiler le bracelet serti d’une résistance de
sécurité.
Veiller à ce que les composants ainsi que les
outils que l’on utilise soient également à ce
potentiel.

WARNUNG
Alle ICs und viele andere Halbleiter sind
empfindlich gegenüber elektrostatischen
Entladungen (ESD).
Unsorgfältige Behandlung im Reparaturfall kan
die Lebensdauer drastisch reduzieren.
Veranlassen Sie, dass Sie im Reparaturfall über
ein Pulsarmband mit Widerstand verbunden
sind mit dem gleichen Potential wie die Masse
des Gerätes.
Bauteile und Hilfsmittel auch auf dieses gleiche
Potential halten.
WAARSCHUWING
NL
Alle IC’s en vele andere halfgeleiders zijn
gevoelig voor electrostatische ontladingen
(ESD).
Onzorgvuldig behandelen tijdens reparatie kan
de levensduur drastisch doen verminderen.
Zorg ervoor dat u tijdens reparatie via een
polsband met weerstand verbonden bent met
hetzelfde potentiaal als de massa van het
apparaat.
Houd componenten en hulpmiddelen ook op
ditzelfde potentiaal.
I
AVVERTIMENTO
Tutti IC e parecchi semi-conduttori sono
sensibili alle scariche statiche (ESD).
La loro longevità potrebbe essere fortemente
ridatta in caso di non osservazione della più
grande cauzione alla loro manipolazione.
Durante le riparazioni occorre quindi essere
collegato allo stesso potenziale che quello della
massa dell’apparecchio tramite un braccialetto
a resistenza.
Assicurarsi che i componenti e anche gli utensili
con quali si lavora siano anche a questo
potenziale.
GB
Safety regulations require that the set be restored to its original
condition and that parts which are identical with those specified,
be used.
NL
Veiligheidsbepalingen vereisen, dat het apparaat bij reparatie in
zijn oorspronkelijke toestand wordt teruggebracht en dat onderdelen,
identiek aan de gespecificeerde, worden toegepast.
F
Les normes de sécurité exigent que l’appareil soit remis à l’état
d’origine et que soient utiliséés les piéces de rechange identiques
à celles spécifiées.

Bei jeder Reparatur sind die geltenden Sicherheitsvorschriften zu
beachten. Der Original zustand des Geräts darf nicht verändert werden;

voltage of your local power supply. If not, please
consult your dealer. The typeplate is located at
the rear of your player.
¶ When the player is switched on, do not move it
around.
¶ Place the player on a solid base (e.g. a cabinet).
¶ Place the player in a location with adequate
ventilation to prevent internal heat build-up in
your player. Allow at least 10 cm (4 inches)
clearance from the rear and the top of the unit
and 5 cm (2 inches) from the each side.
¶ Do not expose the player to excessive moisture,
rain, sand or heat sources.
¶ Under no circumstances should you repair the
player yourself, as this will invalidate the
warranty!
¶ If the player is brought directly from a cold to a
warm location, or is placed in a very damp room,
moisture may condense on the lens of the disc
unit inside the player. Should this occur, the CD
player will not operate normally. Leave the
power on for about one hour with no disc in the
player until normal playback is possible.
¶ Electrostatic discharge may cause unexpected
problems. See whether these problems
disappear if you unplug the AC power cord and
plug it in again after a few seconds.
¶ To disconnect the player from the power
supply completely, remove the AC power
plug from the wall socket.
IMPORTANT:
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE VOLTAGE
SELECTOR LOCATED AT THE REAR
OF THIS SYSTEM IS PRESET AT 220V

etc., which may damage the disc
mechanism.
2)
Do not load more than one disc into each
tray.3)When the CD changer is loaded with discs,
do not turn over or shake the system. This
may jam the changer.
You may load three discs in the CD
changer for continuous playback without
interruption.

Dismantling of the Cassette Cover
2. Twist screw driver
3. Lift up and out
Dismantling of the Front Panel
1) With the CDC tray opened remove the Cover Tray CDC
(pos 107) as indicated.
2) Loosen the 8 screws to separate the Front Panel from the
rear portion.
-2 screws B on the front
-2 screws each on the left & right side
-2 screws at the bottom
1. Place screw driver
(flat side) between
the cover & cassette
door
Opening the CDC Tray manually
1) Take a paper clip or any stiff wire diameter of 1mm -1.5mm
and make a marking about 17mm from the tip.
2) Place the set in an upright position and insert the paper clip
into the slot on the right side of the Cabinet Rear.
3) With the marking just outside the Cabinet Rear, you
should be able to engage the gear on the side of the
3CDC-LC Module. Because of the distance between the
gear and the Cabinet Rear the chance of the paper clip
slipping above or below the gear is high, therefore you
have to feel and adjust slightly to engage the gear correctly.
4) Push the gear slowly towards the front as shown until the
Tray CDC starts to move out of the Front Cabinet. The
Tray CDC is now disengage and can be pulled out completely

Note: Only the Lightguide DSC (pos 127) is sandwiched
between the Front Cabinet (pos 101) & Cover Control
(pos 153).
Note: If the Cabinet Rear has to be replaced, it has to
be replaced by one that has a similar slot on the
right side of the Cabinet otherwise there is no
possibility to disassemble the same set in the
future.
Turn the Gear inside towards
the Front of the Set repeatedly
until the Tray CDC starts to
open.

damage them during repair. After repair, be very sure
that the flex cables are inserted properly into the flex
sockets before encasing, otherwise faults may occurs.

In this mode the electronics will still function
even when an error is detected so that
repair activities can be carried out.
Note: * Depending on the selected grid frequency (9 or 10kHz)
By holding the TUNER and R buttons depressed while switching on the Mains supply, one
of the undermentioned features will be activated:
- the tuning grid frequency is toggled between 9kHz and 10kHz for the Oversea (/21) version.
- the extended FM1 (65.81MHz - 74MHz) is toggled on and off for East Eur. (/34) version.
