INFORMATION ABOUT LEAD-FREE SOLDERING
Philips CE is producing lead-free sets from 1.1.2005 onwards.
IDENTIFICATION:
Regardless of special logo (not always indicated) one must treat all sets from 1 Jan 2005 onwards, according next rules:
Example S/N:
• Use only lead-free solder alloy Philips SAC305 with order code 0622 149 00106. If lead-free solder-paste is required, please contact
the manufacturer of your solder-equipment. In general use of solder-paste within workshops should be avoided because paste is not
easy to store and to handle.
• Use only adequate solder tools applicable for lead-free solder alloy. The solder tool must be able
• Adjust your solder tool so that a temperature around
• Mix of lead-free solder alloy / parts with leaded solder alloy / parts is possible but PHILIPS recommends strongly to avoid mixed
• Use only original spare-parts listed in the Service-Manuals. Not listed standard-material (commodities) has to be purchased at
• Special information for BGA-ICs:
• For sets produced before 1.1.2005 (except products of 2004), containing leaded solder-alloy and components, all needed spare-parts
• On our website www.atyourservice.ce.Philips.com
o To reach at least a solder-temperature of 40
o To stabilize the adjusted temperature at the solder-tip
o To exchange solder-tips for different applications.
solder-joint should not exceed ~ 4 sec. Avoid temperatures above 400 otherwise wear-out of tips will rise drastically and flux-fluid
will be destroyed. To avoid wear-out of tips switch off un-used equipment, or reduce heat.
solder alloy types (leaded and lead-free).
If one cannot avoid or does not know whether product is lead-free, clean carefully the solder-joint from old solder alloy and re-solder
with new solder alloy (SAC305).
external companies.
- always use the 12nc-recognizable soldering temperature profile of the specific BGA (for de-soldering always use the lead-free
temperature profile, in case of doubt)
- lead free BGA-ICs will be delivered in so-called 'dry-packaging' (sealed pack including a silica gel pack) to protect the IC against
moisture. After opening, dependent of MSL-level seen on indicator-label in the bag, the BGA-IC possibly still has to be baked dry.
(MSL=Moisture Sensitivity Level). This will be communicated via AYS-website.
Do not re-use BGAs at all.
will be available till the end of the service-period. For repair of such sets nothing changes.

Bottom line of typeplate gives a 14-digit S/N. Digit 5&6 is the year, digit 7&8 is the week number,
so in this case 2005 wk12
So from 0501 onwards = from 1 Jan 2005 onwards
Important note
you avoid mixing solder-alloys (leaded/ lead-free). So best to always use SAC305 and the
higher temperatures belong to this.
Due to lead-free technology some rules have to be respected by the workshop during a repair:
: In fact also products of year 2004 must be treated in this way as long as
− is reached and stabilized at the solder joint. Heating-time of the

For additional questions please contact your local repair-helpdesk.
You will find this and more technical information within the "magazine", chapter "workshop news".
SERVICE INSTRUCTION
Safety regulations require that after a repair, the set must be returned in its original condition. Pay in particular attention to
the following points:
· Route the wire trees correctly and fix them with the
mounted cable clamps.
· Check the insulation of the AC Power lead for external
damage.
· Check the strain relief of the AC Power cord for proper
function.
· Check the electrical DC resistance between the AC Power
Plug and the secondary side (only for sets which have a AC
Power isolated power supply):
1. Unplug the AC Power cord and connect a wire
between the two pins of the AC Power plug.
2. Set the AC Power switch to the "on" position (keep the
AC Power cord unplugged!).
3. Measure the resistance value between the pins of the
AC Power plug and the metal shielding of the tuner or
the aerial connection on the set. The reading should be
larger than 4.5 Mohm (For U.S. it should be between
4.2 Mohm and 12 Mohm).
4. Switch "off" the set, and remove the wire between the
two pins of the AC Power plug.
• Check the cabinet for defects, to avoid touching of any
inner parts by the customer.
INSTALLATION
Installation
IMPORTANT!
– The type plate is located at the rear of
the system.
– Before connecting the AC power cord
to the wall outlet, ensure that all other
connections have been made.
–Never make or change any
connections with the power switched on.
– High voltage! Do not open. You run the
risk of getting an electric shock.
– The machine does not contain any
user-serviceable parts.
– Modification of the product could
result in hazardous radiation of EMC or
other unsafe operation.
To avoid overheating of the system, a safety
circuit has been built in. Therefore, your
system may switch to Standby mode
automatically under extreme conditions. If
this happens, let the system cool down
before reusing it (not available for all versions).
Note:
– Before installation is finished, it is not
recommended to remove the protective plastic film
attached to the surface of the front panel to avoid
any scratch caused during installation.

Step 2: FM antenna connection
Connect the supplied FM antenna to the FM
AERIAL terminal. Fully extend and adjust the
position of the antenna for optimal reception.
For better FM stereo reception, connect an
outdoor FM antenna to the FM AERIAL (FM
ANTENNA) terminal.
Notes:
– This system does not support MW reception.
Installation
Step 1: Connecting speakers
1
Place the main set with the front side facing
down on a flat and firm surface. Then remove
the detachable cover on the back of the set to
expose the terminals available for connection.
2
Connect the two front speaker cables to the
SPEAKER OUT terminals: right speaker to "R"
and left speaker to "L".
3
Connect one end of the 15-pin D-Sub cable
(the other end is fixed on the CONNECT TO
SUBWOOFER terminal on the back of the
main set) to the CONNECT TO MAIN
terminal of the subwoofer by matching the pins.
Fix the two screws on the connectors to ensure
firm connection.
Notes:
– Ensure that the speaker cables are correctly
connected. Improper connections may damage the
system due to short-circuit.
–For optimal sound performance, use the
supplied speakers.
– Do not connect more than one speaker to any
one pair of +/- speaker terminals.
– Do not connect speakers with an impedance
lower than the speakers supplied. Please refer to
the SPECIFICATIONS section of this manual.
