CL27S10/CL27S18
Service work should be performed only by qualified service technicians who are throughly
familiar with all safety checks and the servicing guidelines which follow:
IMPORTANT SERVICE SAFETY PRECAUTION
WARNING
1. For continued safety, no modification of any circuit
should be attempted.
2. Disconnect AC power before servicing.
3. Semiconductor heat sinks are potential shock
hazards when the chassis is operating.
4. The chassis in this receiver has two ground systems
which are separated by insulating material. The nonisolated (hot) ground system is for the B+ voltage
regulator circuit and the horizontal output circuit. The
isolated ground system is for the low B+ DC voltages
and the secondary circuit of the high voltage
transformer.
To prevent electrical shock use an isolation
transformer between the line cord and power
receptacle, when servicing this chassis.
CAUTION: FOR CONTINUED
PROTECTION AGAINST A
RISK OF FIRE, REPLACE
4A 125V
ONLY WITH SAME TYPE 4A125V FUSE.
SERVICING OF HIGH VOLTAGE SYSTEM
AND PICTURE TUBE
When servicing the high voltage system,
remove the static charge by connecting a
10k ohm resistor in series with an insulated
wire (such as a test probe) between the picture tube ground and the anode lead. (AC
line cord should be disconnected from AC
outlet.)
1. Picture tube in this receiver employs integral
implosion protection.
2. Replace with tube of the same type number for
continued safety .
3. Do not lift picture tube by the neck.
4. Handle the picture tube only when wearing
shatterproof goggles and after discharging the high
voltage anode completely.
X-RADIATION AND HIGH VOLTAGE LIMITS
1. Be sure all service personnel are aware of the
procedures and instructions covering X-radiation. The
only potential source of X-ray in current solid state
TV receivers is the picture tube. However, the picture
tube does not emit measurable X-Ray radiation, if
the high voltage is as specified in the "High Voltage
Check" instructions.
It is only when high voltage is excessive that Xradiation is capable of penetrating the shell of the
picture tube including the lead in the glass material.
The important precaution is to keep the high voltage
below the maximum level specified.
2. It is essential that servicemen have available at all
times an accurate high voltage meter.
The calibration of this meter should be checked
periodically.
3. High voltage should always be kept at the rated value
−no higher. Operation at higher voltages may cause
a failure of the picture tube or high voltage circuitry
and;also, under certain conditions, may produce
radiation in exceeding of desirable levels.
4. When the high voltage regulator is operating properly
there is no possibility of an X-radiation problem. Every
time a color chassis is serviced, the brightness should
be tested while monitoring the high voltage with a
meter to be certain that the high voltage does not
exceed the specified value and that it is regulating
correctly.
5. Do not use a picture tube other than that specified or
make unrecommended circuit modifications to the
high voltage circuitry.
6. When trouble shooting and taking test measurements
on a receiver with excessive high voltage, avoid being
unnecessarily close to the receiver.
Do not operate the receiver longer than is necessary
to locate the cause of excessive voltage.

BEFORE RETURNING THE RECEIVER
(Fire & Shock Hazard)
Before returning the receiver to the user, perform
the following safety checks.
1. Inspect all lead dress to make certain that leads are
not pinched or that hardware is not lodged between
the chassis and other metal parts in the receiver.
2. Inspect all protective devices such as non-metallic
control knobs, insulating materials, cabinet backs,
adjustment and compartment covers or shields,
isolation resistor-capacity networks, mechanical
insulators, etc.
3. To be sure that no shock hazard exists, check for
leakage current in the following manner.
• Plug the AC cord directly into a 120 volt AC outlet,
(Do not use an isolation transformer for this test).
• Using two clip leads, connect a 1.5k ohm, 10 watt
resistor paralleled by a 0.15µF capacitor in series with
all exposed metal cabinet parts and a known earth
ground, such as electrical conduit or electrical ground
connected to earth ground.
• Use an AC voltmeter having with 5000 ohm per volt,
or higher, sensitivity to measure the AC voltage drop
across the resistor.
• Connect the resistor connection to all exposed metal
parts having a return to the chassis (antenna, metal
cabinet, screw heads, knobs and control shafts,
escutcheon and etc.) and measure the AC voltage
drop across the resistor.
AII checks must be repeated with the AC ine cord
plug connection reversed. (If necessary, a nonpolarized adapter plug must be used only for the
purpose of completing these check.)
Any current measured must not exceed 0.5 milliamp.
Any measurements not within the limits outlined
above indicate of a potential shock hazard and
corrective action must be taken before returning the
instrument to the customer.
Many electrical and mechanical parts in television
receivers have special safety-related characteristics.
These characteristics are often not evident from visual
inspection, nor can protection afforded by them be
necessarily increased by using replacement components
rated for higher voltage, wattage, etc.
Replacement parts which have these special safety
characteristics are identified in this manual; electrical
components having such features are identified by "å"
and shaded areas in the Replacement Parts Lists and
Schematic Diagrams.
For continued protection, replacement parts must be
identical to those used in the original circuit. The use of
substitute replacement parts which do not have the same
safety characteristics as the factory recommended
replacement parts shown in this service manual, may
create shock, fire, X-radiation or other hazards.

PRECAUTIONS A PRENDRE LORS DE LA REPARATION
Ne peut effectuer la réparation qu' un technicien spécialisé qui s'est parfaitement
accoutumé à toute vérification de sécurité et aux conseils suivants.
AVERTISSEMENT
1. N'entreprendre aucune modification de tout circuit.
C'est dangereux.
2. Débrancher le récepteur avant toute réparation.
3. Les déversoirs thermiques à semi-conducteurs
peuvent présenter un danger de choc électrique
lorsque le réceqteur est en marche.
4. Le châssis de ce récepteur possède deux systèmes
de masse qui sont séparées par du matériel
d'isolation. Le système de masse non-isolée (sous
tension) est pour le circuit du régulateur de tension
B+ et le circuit de sortie horizontale. Le système de
masse isolée est pour les tensions DC B+ basses et
le circuit secondaire du transformateur haute tension.
Pour éviter tout risque d'électrocution lors de
l'entretien de ce châssis, utiliser un transformateur
d'isolation entre le cordon de ligne et la prise de
courant.
PRECAUTION: POUR LA
PROTECTION CONTINUE
CONTRE LES RISQUES
4A 125V
D'INCENDIE, REMPLACER LE
FUSIBLE P AR UN FUSIBLE DE
MEME TYPE 4A-125V .
REP ARA TION DU SYSTEME A HAUTE TENSION ET DU TUBE-IMAGE
Lors de la réparation de ce systéme,
supprimer la charge statique en branchant
une résistance de 10 kΩ en série avec un fil
isolé (comme une sonde d'essai) entre la
mise à la terre du tube-image et le fil
d'anodel. (Le corden d'alimentation doit être
retiré de la prise murale.)
1. Le tube image dans ce récepteur emploie une
protection intégrée contre l'implosion.
2. Par mesure de sécurité, changer le tube-image pour
un tube du même numéro de type.
3. Ne pas lever le tube-image par son col.
4. Ne manipuler le tube-image qu'en porant des lunettes
incassables et qu'après avoir déchargé totalement
la haute tension.
LIMITES DES RADIATIONS X ET DE LA
HAUTE TENSION
1. Tout le personnel réparateur doit être instruit des
instructions et procédés relatifs aux radiations X.
Le tube-image, seule source de rayons X dons les
téleviseurs transistorisés, n'émet pourtant pas de
rayons mesurables si la haute tension est maintenue
à un niveau préconisé dans la section "Vérification
de la haute tension".
C'est seulement quand la haute tension est excessive
que les rayons X peuvent entrer dans l'enveloppe du
tube-image y compris le conducteur de verre. Il est
important de maintenir la haute tension en-dessous
du niveau spécifié.
2. Il est essentiel que le réparateur ait sous la main un
voltmètre à haute tension qui doit être périodiquement
étalonné.
3. La haute tension doit toujours être maintenue à la
valeur de régime -et pas plus haute. L'opération à
des tensions plus élevées peut entraîner une panne
du tube-image ou du circuit à haute tension et, dans
certaines conditions, peut entraîner une radiation
dépassant les niveaux préscrits.
4. Quand le régulateur à haute tension fonctionne
correctement, il n'y a aucun problème de radiation
X. Chaque fois qu'un châssis couleurs est réparé, la
luminosité doit être examinée bout en contrôlant la
haute tension à l'aide d'un voltmètre pour s'assurer
que la haute tension ne dépasse pas la valeur
spécifiée et qu'elle soit correctement réglée.
5. Ne pas utiliser un tube-image autre que celui spécifié
et ne pas effectuer de modifications déconseillées
du circuit à haute tension.
6. Lors de la recherche des pannes et des mesures
d'essai sur un récepteur qui présente une haute
tension excessive, éviter de s'approcher inutilement
du récepteur.
Ne pas faire fonctionner le récepteur plus longtemps
que nécessaire pour localiser la cause de la tension
excessive.

PRECAUTIONS A PRENDRE LORS DE LA REPARATION
(Suite)
VERIFICATIONS CONTRE L'INCEN-DIE ET
LE CHOC ELECTRIQUE
Avant de rendre le récepteur à l'utilisateur , effectuer
les vérifications suivantes.
1. Inspecter tous les faisceaux de câbles pour s'assurer
que les fils ne soient pas pincés ou qu'un outil ne soit
pas placé entre le châssis et les autres pièces
métalliques du récepteur.
2. Inspecter tous les dispositifs de protection comme
les boutons de commande non-métalliques, les
isolants, le dos du coffret, les couvercles ou blindages
de réglage et de compartiment, les réseaux de
résistance-capacité, les isolateurs mécaniques, etc.
3. S'assurer qu'il n'y ait pas de danger d'électrocution
en vérifiant la fuite de courant, de la facon suivante:
• Brancher le cordon d'alimentation directem-ent à une
prise de courant de 120V. (Ne pas utiliser de
transformateur d'isolation pour cet essai).
• A l'aide de deux fils à pinces, brancher une résistance
de 1,5 kΩ 10 watts en parallèle avec un condensateur
de 0,15µF en série avec toutes les pièces métalliques
exposées du coffret et une terre connue comme une
conduite électrique ou une prise de terre branchée à
la terre.
• Utiliser un voltmètre CA d'une sensibilité d'au moins
5000Ω/V pour mesurer la chute de tension en travers
de la résistance.
• T oucher avec la sonde d'essai les pièces métalliques
exposées qui présentent une voie de retour au
châssis (antenne, coffret métallique, tête des vis,
arbres de commande et des boutons, écusson, etc.)
et mesurer la chute de tension CA en-travers de la
résistance. Toutes les vérifications doivent être
refaites après avoir inversé la fiche du cordon
d'alimentation. (Si nécessaire, une prise d'adpatation
non polarisée peut être utilisée dans le but de terminer
ces vérifications.)
Tous les courants mesurés ne doivent pas dépasser
0,5 mA.
Dans le cas contraire, il y a une possibilité de choc
électrique qui doit être supprimée avant de rendre le
récepteur au client.
De nombreuses pièces, électriques et mécaniques, dans
les téléviseurs présentent des caractéristiques spéciales
relatives à la sécurité, qui ne sont souvent pas évidentes
à vue. Le degré de protection ne peut pas être
nécessairement augmentée en utilisant des pièces de
remplacement étalonnées pour haute tension,
puissance, etc.
Les pièces de remplacement qui présentent ces
caractéristiques sont identifiées dans ce manuel; les
pièces électriques qui présentent ces particularités sont
identifiées par la marque " å " et hachurées dans la
liste des pièces de remplacement et les diagrammes
schématiques.
Pour assurer la protection, ces pièces doivent être
identiques à celles utilisées dans le circuit d'origine.
L'utilisation de pièces qui n'ont pas les mêmes
caractéristiques que les pièces recommandées par
l'usine, indiquées dans ce manuel, peut provoquer des
électrocutions, incendies, radiations X ou autres
accidents.
