SAFETY-RELATED COMPONENT WARNING!!
COMPONENTS IDENTIFIED BY MARK 0 OR DOTTED LINE WITH MARK 0 ON THE SCHEMATIC DIAGRAMS AND IN THE PARTS LIST ARE CRITICAL TO SAFE OPERATION. REPLACE THESE COMPONENTS WITH SONY PARTS WHOSE PART NUMBERS APPEAR AS SHOWN IN THIS MANUAL OR IN SUPPLEMENTS PUB­LISHED BY SONY.
SAFETY CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the following safety checks before releasing the set to the customer.
1. Check the area of your repair for unsoldered or poorly-sol­dered connections. Check the entire board surface for solder splashes and bridges.
2. Check the interboard wiring to ensure that no wires are “pinched” or contact high-wattage resistors.
3. Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly transis­tors, that were installed during a previous repair. Point them out to the customer and recommend their replacement.
4. Look for parts which, though functioning, show obvious signs of deterioration. Point them out to the customer and recom­mend their replacement.
5. Check the B+ voltage to see it is at the values specified.
6. Flexible Circuit Board Repairing
•Keep the temperature of the soldering iron around 270 ˚C
during repairing.
• Do not touch the soldering iron on the same conductor of
the circuit board (within 3 times).
• Be careful not to apply force on the conductor when sol-
dering or unsoldering.
ATTENTION AU COMPOSANT AYANT RAPPORT
À LA SÉCURITÉ!
LES COMPOSANTS IDENTIFIÉS P AR UNE MARQUE 0 SUR LES DIAGRAMMES SCHÉMATIQUES ET LA LISTE DES PIÈCES SONT CRITIQUES POUR LA SÉCURITÉ DE FONCTIONNEMENT. NE REMPLACER CES COM­POSANTS QUE PAR DES PIÈCES SONY DONT LES NUMÉROS SONT DONNÉS DANS CE MANUEL OU DANS LES SUPPLÉMENTS PUBLIÉS PAR SONY.
UNLEADED SOLDER
Boards requiring use of unleaded solder are printed with the lead­free mark (LF) indicating the solder contains no lead. (Caution: Some printed circuit boards may not come printed with
the lead free mark due to their particular size)
: LEAD FREE MARK
Unleaded solder has the following characteristics.
• Unleaded solder melts at a temperature about 40 ˚C higher than ordinary solder. Ordinary soldering irons can be used but the iron tip has to be applied to the solder joint for a slightly longer time. Soldering irons using a temperature regulator should be set to about 350 ˚C . Caution: The printed pattern (copper foil) may peel away if the
heated tip is applied for too long, so be careful!
• Strong viscosity Unleaded solder is more viscous (sticky , less prone to flow) than ordinary solder so use caution not to let solder bridges occur such as on IC pins, etc.
• Usable with ordinary solder It is best to use only unleaded solder but unleaded solder may also be added to ordinary solder.

NOTE FOR REPAIR
When installing a connector, don’t press down at wire of connector. It is possible that a wire is snapped.
DSC-P71/P71M

SERVICE NOTE

Make sure that the flat cable and flexible board are not cracked of bent at the terminal. Do not insert the cable insufficiently nor crookedly.
Cut and remove the part of gilt which comes off at the point. (Be careful or some pieces of gilt may be left inside)
When remove a connector, don’t pull at wire of connector. It is possible that a wire is snapped.
[Discharging of the ST-075 board’s charging capacitor (C510)]
The charging capacitor (C510) of the ST-075 board is charged up to the maximum 300 V potential. There is a danger of electric shock by this high voltage when the battery is handled by hand. The electric shock is caused by the charged voltage which is kept without discharging when the main power of the unit is simply turned off. Therefore, the remaining voltage must be discharged as described below.
Preparing the Short Jig
To preparing the short jig, a small clip is attached to each end of a resistor of 1 k /1 W (1-215-869-11). Wrap insulating tape fully around the leads of the resistor to pre­vent electrical shock.
1 k/1 W
Wrap insulating tape.
Discharging the Capacitor
Short-circuit between the positive and the negative terminals of charged capacitor with the short jig about 10 seconds.

Preparing batteries
Use the following batteries in this camera.
Acceptable batteries
R6 (size AA) Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries (2)
NH-AA-DI (2) (supplied)NH-AA-2DI twin-pack (recommended, not
supplied)
Batteries that cannot be used
Manganese batteries, lithium batteries, ni­cad batteries, alkaline batteries (cannot be used with the DSC-P71)
* Use of AA alkaline batteries may result in
shorter than desired operating time. (only in the DSC-P31) When alkaline batteries are used, take note of the following information.
Turn POWER SAVE “ON”, shut the LCD
screen off, and use the Finder to shoot your images. This will lengthen battery life (page 16).
There is a big difference in the performance
of batteries of different types and of batteries made by different manufacturers. This is especially true in low temperatures, where some batteries are noticeably weaker. You may not be able to shoot in temperatures below +5°C (41°F).
The battery remaining indicator may not
display the correct information.
Charging the batteries
BC-CS1 (supplied)
Insert with the cor-
1
,
Insert Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries into the charger (supplied).
Be sure to charge the Nickel-Metal Hydride
batteries supplied with your camera before using them.
Be sure to charge the batteries in an
environment where the ambient temperature is 10°C to 30°C (50°F to 86°F). If the batteries are charged in an environment where the temperature is outside that range, the batteries may not charge efficiently.
Connect the battery charger to an easily
accessible wall outlet (mains) close by. If something goes wrong while you are using the charger, immediately shut off the power by pulling the plug out of the wall outlet.

2
, Connect the charger to a wall
outlet (mains) using the power cord (mains lead).
Charging starts, and the charge lamp lights. When the charge lamp goes out, charging is finished.
When charging is finished, disconnect the
power cord (mains lead) from the wall outlet (mains), and remove the Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries from the charger.
When transporting the Nickel-Metal Hydride
batteries, be sure to use the battery case (supplied). If the +/− metal terminals are shorted, there is a possibility of danger from excessive heat or fire.
14
Charging the Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries
If the poles of the Nickel-Metal Hydride
batteries are dirty, the batteries may not charge properly. Occasionally clean the poles of the batteries and the terminals of the charger by wiping them with a dry cloth.
At the time of purchase, or when the Nickel-
Metal Hydride batteries haven’t been used for a long time, they may not fully charge. This is typical of this type of battery, and is not a malfunction. If this happens, repeatedly using up the battery fully, and then recharging it, should correct the problem.
Even when Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries
are not being used they loose their charge naturally over time. It is recommended that you recharge the batteries just before using them.
If you recharge Nickel-Metal Hydride
batteries before fully using up the existing charge, the so-called memory effect* can occur, and the low battery warning will be triggered sooner than expected. Charging the battery after fully depleting the existing charge should correct the problem. * The “memory effect” – the situation in
which a battery temporarily accepts a less than full charge.
•To use up the batteries completely, put the camera in “SLIDE SHOW” mode and leave it that way until the batteries are used up (page 67).
Precautions to be observed when charging the batteries
Do not charge any other batteries except Sony
Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries in the charger supplied with your camera. If you try to charge any other type of battery (e.g., manganese batteries, alkaline dry cells, or one-time lithium batteries) than the batteries specified, those batteries may leak, overheat, or explode, causing the danger of burns or other injuries.
Be sure to charge both Nickel-Metal Hydride
batteries at the same time.
When the batteries are charged, use them only
in an environment where the temperature range is 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). Otherwise, there is a danger of leaks, explosions, excessive heat, fire, or electric shock.
Do not charge fully charged Nickel Metal
Hydride batteries again. Otherwise, there is a danger of leaks, explosions, excessive heat, fire, or electric shock.
Do not peel off the external seals or damage
the batteries. Never use batteries from which the seals have been partially or completely removed, or batteries that have been split in any way.
Charging time

NH-AA-DI × 2 (supplied)
Approx. 13 hours
This represents the time required to charge fully depleted Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries using the supplied BC-CS1 charger in an environment where the ambient temperature is 25°C (77°F).
Charging is complete in approximately 13
hours. The charge lamp may remain lit longer than 13 hours, but this is not a malfunction.
If you use the ACC-CSNQ STAMINA “Super
Quick charge” kit (not supplied), the batteries will charge faster.

Under the bright summer sun, everything will appear bluish, under a light sources like a light bulb, white objects will appear will appear reddish. The human eye has an excellent ability to adjust. Even when lighting conditions change, the eye can adjust and recognize the correct color almost instantly. Ho wever, digital still cameras are greatly influenced by light. Normally, this camera adjusts automatically, but if you notice that the color of the entire image seems to be a bit unnatural when replaying an image on the LCD screen, it is recommended that you adjust the white balance.

Choosing a focus method
Mode dial settings: /SCN/ Multipoint AF
When you use Multipoint AF, it calculates the distance in three places, in the center of the image, and to both the left and right of the center, you can shoot with the auto focus function without being dependent on the composition of the image. It is useful when it is difficult to focus on the subject because it is not in the center of the frame.

You can focus automatically using the AF range finder in the center of the frame.

When you are shooting movies (MPEG
MOVIE) and you choose Multipoint AF, the distance to the center of the screen is estimated as an average, so the AF works even with a certain amount of vibration. The Center AF automatically focuses only on the center of the image, so it is convenient when you want to focus only on what you aim at.
When you use Digital zoom or AF illuminator,
priority AF movement is given to subjects in or near the center of the frame. In this case, the AF range finder isn’t displayed.

Shooting with the AF lock using Center AF
If it is difficult to focus because the subject is not in the center of the frame, you can focus in this situation using the AF range finder. For example, when you are shooting two human subjects, and there is a gap between them, the camera may focus on the background visible in the gap. In a case like this, use AF lock to ensure the subjects are in correct focus.
When you are using AF lock, you can capture
an image with the correct focus even if the subject is at the edge of the frame.
a Compose the shot so that the
subject is centered in the AF range finder, and press the shutter halfway down.
First, the focus for the subject you are aiming at will be adjusted. When the AE/AF lock indicator stops flashing and stays lit, and there is a beeping sound, focus adjustment is completed.

Shooting multiple frames
– Clip Motion Mode dial setting:
You can shoot a number of still images consecutively (GIF animation). Because the file size is small, these images are ideal for use on a home page, or for attaching to an e­mail message.
Clip Motion images are restricted to color
levels of 256 colors and below. This is a characteristic of GIF format recording. For this reason, the image quality of some images may deteriorate.
NORMAL (160×120)
The maximum number of frames you can shoot in one Clip Motion shot is ten. This is the best choice for use on a home page.
MOBILE (120×108)
Two frames is the maximum number that can be shot in Clip Motion in this mode.
MOBILE mode has strict file size limits, so
picture quality falls accordingly.
For the number of images you can record using
Clip Motion, see page 91.

Precautions
Cleaning
Cleaning the LCD screen
Clean the screen surface with an LCD cleaning kit (not supplied) to remove fingerprints, dust, etc.
Cleaning the lens
Wipe the lens with a soft cloth to remove fingerprints, dust, etc.
Cleaning the camera surface
Clean the camera surface with a soft cloth slightly moistened with water, then wipe the surface with a dry cloth. Do not use any type of solvent such as thinner, alcohol or benzine as this may damage the finish or the casing.
Note on operating temperature
The camera is designed for use within a temperature range of 0° – 40° (32°F and 104°F). Shooting in extremely cold or hot locations that exceed this range is not recommended.
On moisture condensation
If the camera is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense inside or outside the camera. This moisture condensation may cause a malfunction of the camera.
Moisture condensation occurs easily when:
•The camera is brought from a cold location such as a ski slope into a warmly heated room.
•The camera is taken from an air­conditioned room or car interior to the hot outdoors, etc.
To prevent moisture condensation
When bringing the camera from a cold place to a warm place, seal the camera in a plastic bag and leave it in the new location for about an hour. Remove the plastic bag when the camera has adapted to the new temperature.
If moisture condensation occurs
Turn off the camera and wait about an hour for the moisture to evaporate. Note that if you attempt to shoot with moisture remaining inside the lens, you will be unable to record clear images.
The internal rechargeable button battery
This camera has an internal rechargeable button battery for maintaining the date and time and other settings regardless of whether the power is on or off. This rechargeable button battery is continually charged as long as you are using the camera. However, if you use the camera for only short periods it discharges gradually, and if you do not use the camera at all for about one month it becomes completely discharged. In this case, be sure to charge this rechargeable button battery before using the camera. Note that even if this rechargeable button battery is not charged, you can still use the camera as long as you do not record the date and time.
Charging the battery
Connect the camera to a wall outlet (mains) using the AC power adapter or install a charged battery pack, and leave the camera for 24 hours or more with the POWER button set to OFF.

The “Memory Stick”
“Memory Stick” is a new compact, portable and versatile IC recording medium with a data capacity that exceeds the capacity of a floppy disk. There are two types of “Memory Stick”: an ordinary “Memory Stick” and a “MagicGate Memory Stick.” You can use both types of “Memory Stick” with your camera. However, because your camera does not support the MagicGate standards, data recorded with your camera is not subject to MagicGate* copyright protection.
* MagicGate is copyright protection technology
that uses encryption technology.
Yo u cannot record or delete images when the
write-protect tab is set to LOCK. The position or the shape of the write-protect tab may differ depending on the “Memory Stick” you use.
Connector
Write-protect tab
Labeling position
Do not remove the “Memory Stick” while
reading or writing data.
Data may be damaged in a location subject to
the effects of static electricity or noise.
Do not attach any other material than the
supplied label on the labeling position.
When you carry or store the “Memory Stick,”
put it in the case supplied with it.
Do not touch the terminals of a “Memory
Stick” with your hand or a metal object.
Do not strike, bend or drop a “Memory Stick.”
Do not disassemble or modify a “Memory
Stick.”
Do not expose the “Memory Stick” to water.
The nickel hydride batteries
Effective use of the battery
•Battery performance decreases in low­temperature surroundings, and the battery life is shortened under such circumstances. To use the battery longer, we recommend you keep the battery in a pocket close to your body to warm it, and insert it in your camera just before you start shooting.
• If you use the LCD screen or shoot a lot using the zoom, the battery power will be used up faster.
•We recommend having spare batteries handy for two or three times the expected shooting time, and try test shooting before the actually using the camera.
•Do not expose the battery to water. The battery is not water-resistant.

Precautions for Replacement of CCD Imager
• The CD-392 board mounted as a repair part is not equipped with a CCD imager. When replacing this board, remove the CCD imager from the old one and mount it onto the new one.
• If the CCD imager has been replaced, carry out all the adjustments for the camera section.
• As the CCD imager may be damaged by static electricity from its structure, handle it carefully like for the MOS IC. In addition, ensure that the receiver is not covered with dusts nor exposed to strong light.
