SAFETY PRECAUTION FOR SERVICE MANUAL
Precaution to be taken when replacing and servicing the Laser Pickup.
The AEL (Accessible Emission Level) of Laser Power Output for this model is specified to be lower than Class 1 Requirements.
However, the following precautions must be observed during servicing to protect your eyes against exposure to the Laser beam
(1) When the cabinet has been removed, the power is turned on without a compact disc, and the Pickup is on a position outer than
the lead-in position, the Laser will light for several seconds to detect a disc. Do not look into the Pickup Lens.
(2) The Laser Power Output of the Pickup inside the unit and replacement service parts have already been adjusted prior to shipping.
(3) No adjustment to the Laser Power should be attempted when replacing or servicing the Pickup.
(4) Under no circumstances look directly into the Pickup Lens at any time.
(5) CAUTION - Use of controls or adjustments, or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in
● This Video CD Micro System is classified as
a CLASS 1 LASER product.
● The CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT label is located on the rear cover.

Keeping the FF/FWD button and MEMORY button pressed,
turn on POWER. Then, the frequency is initially set in the
memory as shown in Table. Call it with the Jog volume button
by pressing the VOLUME/JOG button to use it for adjustment
and check of tuner circuit.
The test mode applied to this microcomputer has three modes, namely ordinary test mode to be used for adjustment or
measurement, aging test mode to be used for aging test, and self-diagnosis test mode for self-inspection in case of final product
inspection.
1. Turning on the test mode
To turn on the specific test mode, press the POWER button, holding down the following two buttons in the ordinary stand-by
mode (power off state). In this case only the main unit button is valid. Even when the POWER of remote control button is set
to on, the test mode is not turned on.
The tuner test mode is intended to store the adjustment and measurement frequencies in the preset memory CH without
frequency setting by adjusting personnel when the tuner section is adjusted in the production line.
2. Details of tuner test mode
When the power is turned on by using the "POWER" button while the "Volume/JOG Dial Selector" and "Volume Select"
buttons are held down in POWER OFF state, the frequency for adjustment and measurement of destination specified by the
AREA terminal is preset and stored in the preset memory CH. However, Ordinary 1 and Ordinary 2 are set to the designation
(destination selected by SPAN switching operation) set when the test mode is set. (As for frequencies to be preset and stored
for each destination, refer to item 3.)
The tuner test mode is started from preset No.1.
The operations of test mode are identical with the ordinary operations of TUNER function. However, FUNCTION switching
is invalid.
Since it is necessary to discard the content of preset memory when the tuner test mode is ended, "0000" or "1111" bits are
written in the memory to be checked in case of memory check (in case of initial setting) so that memory abnormality is detected
in case of initial setting so as to ensure memory initialization.
When the tuner test mode is turned on, the following indication lights for one second.
• The TUNER TEST2 mode is set as a result of Volume Select + POWER. -> IF AC is set to OFF in the TEST2 mode, the initial
state is restored.
When POWER is set to OFF, the memory of TEST2 mode is protected.
When the power is turned on again, the ordinary operation is enabled while the data is stored in the
memory (besides TUNER).
If AC OFF state is maintained in this state for about 1/2 day, start is executed in the initial state.
• To clear the whole memory, insert the AC cord, holding down MEMORY + PLAY.

When this mode is set, BASS/TREBLE is set to 0 (0 dB) and SURROUND mode is set to off, and start-up function is set to CD
when volume is -14 dB (STEP 17). The button operations in the test mode are the same as those of ordinary operation excepting
sound volume UP/DOWN.
(1) The indication is the same as that of ordinary operation excepting test mode setting.
(2) The sound volume control with the sound volume UP/DOWN button is only the following 3 steps unlike the ordinary state.
(3) BASS/TREBLE and SURROUND are switched when button operation is performed.
4. Timer test Mode (TEST 4)
When the test mode is set, the following indication lights for one second.
The current time and timer time are set in the following procedure to perform the timer playback.
1. Set the current time to 1:00, set the timer to ON time 1:02, set the function to Tape, and set volume STEP 8. One minute is
counted as one second, and the timer playback operation is performed. The fade-in (when playback is started) is executed
at a rate of one step for 0.5 sec. After completion of fade-in the fade-out is executed at a rate of one step for 0.5 sec (WAIT
1 sec inserted).
After completion of fade-out the power is turned off (after WAIT 1 sec), and the mode is changed to the stand-by mode.
The indication during operation is the same as that of ordinary timer operation.
5. LCD Test Mode (TEST 5)
When the LCD test mode is set, all the LCD segments are lighted. After that the indication is changed as follows according to
the "PLAY" button input.
Lighting of all segments Lighting of odd segments Lighting of even segments

6. Key input diagnosis Test Mode (TEST 6)
When the test mode is set, the following indication appears.
This test mode is intended to check whether all the main unit buttons can be detected. Accordingly, in this test mode checking
as to whether the "POWER" button was pressed after all the buttons shown below were pressed is performed. If the result is
OK, OK is indicated. Even any one of keys was not pressed, an error is indicated. In case of OK termination or error termination
exit from this mode occurs when the "POWER" button is pressed next time, and the stand-by mode is set.
1. In case of "FF/FWD" + "REC PAUSE"
Since SURROUND and RDS are not provided, the following 11 buttons are detected as all buttons.
PLAY, JOG MODE, BAND, BASS/TREBLE, FUNCTION, MEMORY/SET, REC PAUSE, REW, FF, STOP, CLOCK/TIMER/
SLEEP.
The OK/NG indication of test result is as follows.
ERROR LIST
PU-IN SW detection error display
Error contents ............................ Displayed when the ON of detection SW could not be detected even after a certain period of time
passed, even though controlled to return the CD pickup to the most inside periphery in
microcomputer.

NOTES ON SCHEMATIC DIAGRAM
XL-30V
• 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
