IMPORTANT SERVICE NOTES (FOR U.S.A. ONLY)
BEFORE RETURNING THE AUDIO PRODUCT
(Fire & Shock Hazard)
Before returning the audio product 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 audio product.
2. Inspect all protective devices such as insulating materials,
cabinet, terminal board, adjustment and compartment covers
or shields, mechanical insulators etc.
3. To be sure that no shock hazard exists, check for leakage
current in the following manner.
* Plug the AC line cord directly into a 120 volt AC outlet.
* Using two clip leads, connect a 1.5 kohm, 10 watt resistor
paralleled by a 0.15 µF capacitor in series with all exposed
metal cabinet parts and a known earth ground, such as
conduit or electrical ground connected to earth ground.
* Use a VTVM or VOM with 1000 ohm per volt, or higher,
sensitivity to measure the AC voltage drop across the
resistor (See diagram).
* Connect the resistor connection to all exposed metal parts
having a return path to the chassis (antenna, metal cabinet,
screw heads, knobs and control shafts, escutcheon, etc.)
and measure the AC voltage drop across the resistor.

8. CD MECHANISM Aging Test Mode (TEST 8)
OPEN/CLOSE & 3 DISC CHANGER aging test.
DISPLAY:
This test mode is intended to check whether all the main
unit buttons can be detected. Accordingly, in this test
mode, it is checked whether the "POWER ON/STAND BY"
button was pressed after all the buttons shown below were
pressed. If the result is OK, OK is displayed. If any one of
keys was not pressed, an error is displayed. In both cases
of OK termination or error termination, the mode is shifted
to the standby mode if the "POWER ON/STAND BY" button
is pressed subsequently.
All models using this type of microcomputer are not always
provided with the same buttons. Since the buttons used are
different depending on models, types of buttons to be used
are determined by whether SURROUND, and an electric lid
are available at the initial setting by MODEL port.
The order of buttons to be pressed is not determined.
Accordingly, it is checked whether all buttons have been
pressed.
1. PU-IN buttons: REW/PRESET DOWN + CD STOP
Since this model is provided with SURROUND (HAVE
OR NOT), and electric CD lid, the following 10 buttons
are detected as all buttons.
PLAY, X-BASS/DEMO, FUNCTION, VOLUME UP/
DOWN, MEMORY/SET, REW, FF, STOP, CD-OPEN/

NOTES ON SCHEMATIC DIAGRAM
• Resistor:
To differentiate the units of resistors, such symbol as K and
M are used: the symbol K means 1000 ohm and the symbol
M means 1000 kohm and the resistor without any symbol is
ohm-type resistor. Besides, the one with “Fusible” is a fuse
type.
• Capacitor:
To indicate the unit of capacitor, a symbol P is used: this
symbol P means pico-farad and the unit of the capacitor
without such a symbol is microfarad. As to electrolytic
capacitor, the expression “capacitance/withstand voltage”
is used.
(CH), (TH), (RH), (UJ): Temperature compensation
(ML): Mylar type
(P.P.): Polypropylene type
