across the resistor.
All checks must be repeated with the AC cord plug
connection reversed. (If necessar y, 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 110~240 volt A C outlet.
» 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
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 , wattage, etc.
Replacement parts which have these special safety
characteristics are identified in this manual; electrical
and shaded areas in the
Schematic Diagrams.
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 characteristics as the factory

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 service 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. Mak e 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.

ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES (AVC SYSTEM)
Preparation for adjustment
1. The product has been adjusted and optimized in the factory. If the product needs to be readjusted for some
reason, e.g., after parts replacement, follow the instructions shown below.
2. Control parameter values set in the in-process adjustment mode has been stored in the corresponding registers.
When the product is readjusted, the contents of the registers are changed. Bef ore readjustment, f actory settings
should be noted in case the contents of registers require to be restored.
3. Use a stabilized AC power supply.
4. To rewrite a program, you should note the items ("OSD MENU" and "Adjustment Values") you want to change
and initialize EEPROM, and then rewrite the changes into EEPROM.
How to enter the in-process adjustment mode
CAUTION: Exercise great care to hide the procedure in entering the in-process adjustment mode from the
customer. Inadvertent setting changes in this mode may cause a fatal error resulting in a program being
unrecoverable.
1. Entering the in-process adjustment mode:
Connect the system cable between the display and AVC system.
Turn off the "MAIN POWER" button of the display once.
Turn on the main power while holding down the "INPUT" button and the "VOL (-)" button of the Display
simultaneously.
The system will be activated.
~If you see multiple lines of blue characters on the display, you are in the in-process adjustment mode. If not
(the normal activation screen opens), retry.
2. Accessing the inspection process mode:
After activation of the system, make adjustments according to the instructions indicated on the process
adjustment OSD menu screen.
Move to the General Process Adjustment (AVC System Section Process).
3. Restoring factory settings: (At the time of "INDUSTRY INIT" execution, please wait for about 30 seconds until
/// disappears.)
When the "INDUSTRY INIT" button is selected after activation of the system, factory channel setting remains
unchanged.
After the system exits from the in-process adjustment mode.
Changes made by the user will default to factory settings. Note that channel setting is also initialized.
4. Exiting from the in-process adjustment mode:
Unplug the power cable while the system is in the in-process adjustment mode to exit from the mode.
Take care not to press the "POWER" button on the remote controller or the AVC system after using factory
settings to run the system.
5. OSD menu screen and menu items during manual adjustment:
~The layout and men u items of the OSD menu screen ma y somewhat v ary depending on the program versions.
~Just rewriting a program does not cause settings to be "initial values". (Preparation for adjustment)

6. Loading the backup data and setting HDCP when the PC I/F unit is replaced
Nearly all data including factory settings, user settings, and channel setting is stored in the PC I/F unit.
The product comes with EEPROM (IC1506) on the Main Unit in case the PC I/F unit is replaced; original data
backed up on the EEPROM can be loaded to the new PC I/F unit.
∫ How to load the backup data
Select EEPROM RECOVER in the OSD menu (page 7) and turn the "Volume" key ON; then press "SET/
ENTER".
∫ How to set HDCP
After completion of adjustments, select KEY WRITE "ON" in the OSD menu (page 1/13) f or manual adjustment
and turn the "Volume" key ON; then press "SET/ENTER".
∫ How to read the factory settings (backup data)
Select EEPROM RECOVER (page 7), set it from "OFF" to "ON" with the "Volume" key, and then press the
"SET/ENTER" key.
