IMPORTANT SERVICE SAFETY PRECAUTION
Ë
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 having with 5000 ohm per volt,
or higher, sensitivity or measure the AC voltage drop
1. For continued safety, no modification of any circuit
should be attempted.
2. Disconnect AC power before servicing.
CAUTION: FOR CONTINUED PROTECTION
AGAINST A RISK OF FIRE REPLACE ONLY WITH
SAME TYPE FUSE.
» 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, 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.
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

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, remove 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 alloyed 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.

2-3 Monitor microprocessor software version upgrade
Get ready before you begin
Get ready the same items as listed in the "Main software version upgrade".
Preparation
Create the SD card for monitor microprocessor software version upgrade in the same manner as explained in
the "Main software version upgrade". Copy the binary image file M150Mxxx.SDC (named temporarily) for
monitor microprocessor software version upgrade to the SD card drive.
How to upgrade the software
1 Shut off the AC power to the unit (i.e. unplug the AC cord).
2 Insert the SD card for version upgrade (prepared as above) into the service socket located lower side from
center at terminals, above S-VIDEO terminal in the rear of the unit, in a way that the cut corner of the SD
card comes at the upper side.
Note: If the SD card is inserted in a wrong way, the card will go deep inside the unit beyond retrieval. Take due
care to insert the SD card correctly.
3 Turn on the AC power (i.e. plug in the AC cord).
Caution!!
The moment this operation is done, the upgrading of the monitor microprocessor software starts.
While the upgrade is ongoing, never power off the unit. Otherwise the upgrade will fail and the
system may have a serious damage beyond recovery (inability to start).
4 After the unit startup, the system upgrade screen as shown below appears within 10-30 seconds.
