CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation
exposure.
Notes on chip component replacement
• Never reuse a disconnected chip component.
• Notice that the minus side of a tantalum capacitor may be
damaged by heat.
Flexible Circuit Board Repairing
• Keep the temperature of 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 soldering
or unsoldering.
Laser component in this product is capable
of emitting radiation exceeding the limit for
Class 1.
SAFETY CHECK-OUT
(US model only)
After correcting the original service problem, perform the
following safety checks before releasing the set to the customer:
Check the antenna terminals, metal trim, “metallized” knobs, screws,
and all other exposed metal parts for A C leakage. Check leakage as
described below.
LEAKAGE
The AC leakage from any exposed metal part to earth ground
and from all exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part having
a return to chassis, must not exceed 0.5 mA (500 microamperes).
Leakage current can be measured by any one of three methods.
1. A commercial leakage tester, such as the Simpson 229 or RCA
WT -540A. Follo w the manufacturers’ instructions to use these
instruments.
2. A battery-operated AC milliammeter. The Data Precision 245
digital multimeter is suitable for this job.
3. Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of a
VOM or battery-operated AC v oltmeter . The “limit” indication
is 0.75 V, so analog meters must have an accurate lo w-v oltage
scale. The Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63Trd are examples of
a passive VOM that is suitable. Nearly all battery operated
digital multimeters that have a 2V AC range are suitable. (See
Fig. A)
This appliance is classified as a CLASS 1 LASER product. The
CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT MARKING is located on the rear
exterior.

SERVICING NOTE
NOTES ON HANDLING THE OPTICAL PICK-UP BLOCK
OR BASE UNIT
The laser diode in the optical pick-up block may suffer electrostatic
break-down because of the potential difference generated by the
charged electrostatic load, etc. on clothing and the human body.
During repair, pay attention to electrostatic break-down and also
use the procedure in the printed matter which is included in the
repair parts.
The flexible board is easily damaged and should be handled with
care.
NOTES ON LASER DIODE EMISSION CHECK
The laser beam on this model is concentrated so as to be focused on
the disc reflective surface by the objective lens in the optical pickup block. Therefore, when checking the laser diode emission,
observe from more than 30 cm away from the objective lens.
LASER DIODE AND FOCUS SEARCH OPERATION
CHECK
Carry out the “S curve check” in “CD section adjustment” and check
that the S curve waveform is output four times.
About CD-TEXT display
This unit is provided with a simple CD-TEXT display function.
The CD-TEXT contents of 20 tracks are displayed on the fluorescent
display tube.
Since the function is simple, some special characters may not be
displayed, or may be displayed as other characters.

4. Set the CD mode REPEAT to OFF and PLAY MODE to ALL DISCS.
(Press the PLAY MODE and REPEAT buttons to set these modes.)
5. Press the FUNCTION button to switch the function to “CD”.
6. Press the three buttons t/CLOCK SET , ENTER , and DISC 4 button simultaneously.
7. Aging starts.
8. To end aging, press the 1/u button to turn the set OFF.
Aging Sequence:
Aging is performed in the following sequence.
• Tape Deck
1. The tape in deck A is rewound. “TAPE A AG-1” is displayed.
2. The FWD side of deck A is played for two minutes.
“TAPE A AG-2” is displayed.
3. The tape in deck A is fast forwarded. “TAPE A AG-3” is displayed. Fast forward is carried out for 20 seconds or to the tape end.
4. The RVS side of deck A is played for two minutes.
“TAPE A AG-4” is displayed.

1. Demagnetize the record/playback head with a head
demagnetizer.
2. Do not use a magnetized screwdriver for the adjustments.
3. After the adjustments, apply suitable locking compound to the
parts adjusted.
4. The adjustments should be performed with the rated power
supply voltage unless otherwise noted.
5. The adjustments should be performed in the order given in this
service manual. (As a general rule, playback circuit adjustment
should be completed before performing recording circuit
adjustment.)
6. The adjustments should be performed for both L-CH and RCH.
7. Switches and controls should be set as follows unless otherwise
specified.

INTRODUCTION
When set to the test mode performed in T ape Speed Adjustment,
when the tape is rewound after recording, the “REC memory mode”
which rewinds only the recorded portion and playback is set.
This “REC memory mode” is convenient for performing this
adjustment. During recording, the input signal FUNCTION will
automatically switch to VIDEO 1.
(After recording, press the 0 button without stopping will return
to the position where recording was started.)
1. Press FUNCTION button to select VIDEO 1. (This step is not
necessary if the above test mode has already been set.)
2. Insert a tape into deck B, press the r REC button, and then
press the · button to start recording.

Note:
1. CD Block is basically constructed to operate without
adjustment. Therefore, check each item in order given.
2. Use YEDS-18 disc (3-702-101-01) unless otherwise indicated.
3. Use an oscilloscope with more than 10MΩ impedance.
4. Clean the object lens by an applicator with neutral detergent
when the signal level is low than specified value with the
following checks.
Note: Clear RF signal waveform means that the shape “◊” can be
clearly distinguished at the center of the waveform.

3. Press the 1/u button to turn the set ON.
4. With the disc (YEDS-18) loaded, press the ·P button and
perform focus search. (Focus search will be performed in the
same way even while the disc table is pushed in and out.)
