IMPORTANT SERVICE SAFETY PRECA UTION

Service work should be performed only by qualified service technicians who are thoroughly familiar with all safety checks and the servicing guidelines which follow:

WARNING

» Use an AC voltmeter ha ving with 5000 ohm per v olt,

or higher, sensitivity or measure the A C voltage drop

1. For continued safety, no modification of any circuit should be attempted.

2. Disconnect AC power before servicing.

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, CAUTION: FOR CONTINUED PROTECTION AGAINST A RISK OF FIRE REPLACE ONLY WITH SAME TYPE FUSE.

escutcheon, etc.) and measure the AC voltage drop

across the resistor.

All checks must be repeated with the AC cord plug

connection reversed. (If necessary, a nonpolarized

adaptor plug must be used only for the purpose of

completing these checks.)

Any reading of 0.75 Vrms (this corresponds to 0.5

mA rms AC.) or more is excessive and indicates a

potential shock hazard which must be corrected

before returning the monitor to the owner.

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, and check 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, insulation materials, cabinet backs, adjustment and compartment covers or shields, isolation resistor-capacitor 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. » Using two clip leads, connect a 1.5k ohm, 10 watt

TO EXPOSED METAL PARTS

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 an earth ground.

SAFETY NOTICE

Many electrical and mechanical parts in LCD color television 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 , w attage , etc. Replacement parts which have these special safety characteristics are identified in this manual; electrical

and shaded areas in the

For continued protection, replacement parts must be identical to those used in the original circuit. The use of a substitute replacement parts which do not have the same safety character istics as the factory recommended replacement parts shown in this service manual, may create shock, fire or other hazards.

VERIFICATIONS CONTRE L'INCEN-DIE ET LE CHOC ELECTRIQUE

Avant de rendre le récepteur à l'utilisateur, effectuer les vérifications suivantes.

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.

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,

Precautions for using lead-free solder

1 Employing lead-free solder

"PWBs" of this model employs lead-free solder. The LF symbol indicates lead-free solder, and is attached on the PWBs and service manuals. The alphabetical character following LF shows the type of lead-free solder. Example:

L Fa

Indicates lead-free solder of tin, silver and copper.

2 Using lead-free wire solder

When fixing the PWB soldered with the lead-free solder, apply lead-free wire solder. Repairing with conventional lead wire solder may cause damage or accident due to cracks. As the melting point of lead-free solder (Sn-Ag-Cu) is higher than the lead wire solder by 40°C, we recommend you to use a dedicated soldering bit, if you are not familiar with how to obtain lead-free wire solder or soldering bit, contact our service station or ser vice branch in your area.

3 Soldering

As the melting point of lead-free solder (Sn-Ag-Cu) is about 220°C which is higher than the conventional lead solder by 40°C, and as it has poor solder wettability, you may be apt to keep the soldering bit in contact with the PWB for extended period of time. However, Since the land may be peeled off or the maximum heat-resistance temperature of parts may be exceeded, remov e the bit from the PWB as soon as you confirm the steady soldering condition. Lead-free solder contains more tin, and the end of the soldering bit may be easily corroded. Make sure to turn on and off the power of the bit as required. If a different type of solder stays on the tip of the soldering bit, it is allo y ed with lead-free solder. Clean the bit after every use of it. When the tip of the soldering bit is blackened during use, file it with steel wool or fine sandpaper.

Be careful when replacing parts with polarity indication on the PWB silk.
