WARNING !
THE AEL (ACCESSIBLE EMISSION LEVEL) OF THE LASER POWER OUTPUT IS LESS THAN CLASS 1
BUT THE LASER COMPONENT IS CAPABLE OF EMITTING RADIATION EXCEEDING THE LIMIT FOR
CLASS 1.
A SPECIALLY INSTRUCTED PERSON SHOULD DO SERVICING OPERATION OF THE APPARATUS.

Additional Laser Caution
1. Loading-status detection switch (S101 on the LOAB assy) are detected
by the microprocessor (IC601 in the DVDM assy).
• To per mit the laser diode to oscillate, it is required to set the loadingstatus detection switch for the clamp position (the center terminal of S101
is shorted to +3V).
When the voltage of IC101-pin 20 is +3V and IC601 (microprocessor) pin 83 is +3V, 650nm laser diode for DVD oscillates in the DVDM Assy.
When the voltage of IC101-pin 20 is +3V and IC601 (microprocessor) pin 83 is 0V (GND), 780nm laser diode for CD oscillates in the DVDM
Assy.
In the test mode ∗ , the laser diode oscillates when microprocessor detects
a PLA Y signal, or when the PLAY key is pressed (S203 ON in the FLKB
assy), with the above requirements satisfied.
2. When the cover is open, close viewing through the objective lens with
the naked eye will cause exposure to the laser beam.

7.1 DIAGNOSIS
7.1.1 SELF-DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION OF PICKUP DEFECTIVE
This unit can confirm the laser diode current value (DVD: 650nm, CD: 780nm) of pickup on the Test Mode screen.
(Press the ESC → TEST keys in order on the test mode remote control unit (GGF1067) to enter the test mode.)
It's effective in case of the following condition.
Symptom
• Indicates "No Disc" in FL display.
• Player does not playback, etc..
Procedure of Self-Diagnosis
1 Enter the Test mode.
2 When diagnosing the 650nm laser diode:
Press the → keys in order, and turn on the laser diode (It light-up for nine seconds.).
When diagnosing the 780nm laser diode:
Press the → keys in order, and turn on the laser diode (It light-up for nine seconds.).

When let it turn on once again after performed 2 once,
After pressed REP.B key once
650nm: Press the → keys in order
780nm: Press the → keys in order
3 Confirm the indicated value of the laser diode current (LDI). (Refer to following figure.)
4 When indicated value is more than 100, pickup is defective. → Replacement is necessary
Replace the Traverse Mechanism Assy or Pickup.
Note :
When a DVD disc or a CD disc is played in the test mode, this function is effective.
