• For environmental protection, lead-free solder is used on the printed circuit boards mounted in this unit.
Be sure to use lead-free solder and a soldering iron that can meet specifications for use with lead-free solders for repairs
accompanied by reworking of soldering.
• Compared with conventional eutectic solders, lead-free solders have higher melting points, by approximately 40 °C.
Therefore, for lead-free soldering, the tip temperature of a soldering iron must be set to around 373 °C in general, although
the temperature depends on the heat capacity of the PC board on which reworking is required and the weight of the tip of
the soldering iron.
Do NOT use a soldering iron whose tip temperature cannot be controlled.
Compared with eutectic solders, lead-free solders have higher bond strengths but slower wetting times and higher melting
temperatures (hard to melt/easy to harden).
The following lead-free solders are available as service parts:
• Parts numbers of lead-free solder:
GYP1006 1.0 in dia.
GYP1007 0.6 in dia.
GYP1008 0.3 in dia.
• Before removing the Power Amp Assy, it is neccessary to discharge C5721 and C5722.
For more detail, please refer to page 67.

Simplified diagnosis
Errors in DSP Assembly (Areas simply and roughly predictable by machine operation only)
• Sound abnormality in Delay
If sound abnormality does not occur in the Delay OFF state but occurs in the Delay ON state, it is most likely
that a failure has occurred in SDRAM (IC301) or LATCH (IC303, IC304) in the 1st DSP Block.
• No sound at analog signal input
If sound abnormality does not occur with a digital signal input (COAX, OPT) but occurs only with an analog signal input,
it is most likely that a failure has occurred in the AD converter (IC591).
