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.
CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
other than those specified herein may result in hazardous
radiation exposure.
This appliance is classified as
a CLASS 1 LASER product.
This label is located on the rear

SECTION 1
SERVICING NOTES
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 OPERA TION CHECK
Carry out the “S curve check” in “CD section adjustment” and check
that the S curve waveform is output several times.

TEST MODE
HCD-GN880
[GC TEST MODE]
• This mode is used to check the fluorescent indicator tube, LED,
model, destination, software version, volume, key jog, encoder
and VACS level.
Procedure:
1. Press x button, [ENTER] button and [DISC 2] button
simultaneously.
2. All LEDs and segments in fluorescent indicator tube are lighted
up.
3. When you want to enter the software version display mode,
press [DISC 1] button. The model and destination are displayed.
4. Each time [DISC 1] button is pressed, the display changes from
MC version, GC version, CD version, CDDM version, CDMA
version, CDMB version, BDA version, BDB version, ST
version, T A version, TM version and TC version in this order ,
and returns to the MC version display.
5. When [DISC 3] button is pressed while the version numbers
are being displayed except model and destination, the date of
the software creation appear. When [DISC 3] button is pressed
again, the display returns to the software version display. When
[DISC 1] button is pressed while the date of the software
creation is being displayed, the date of the software creation
is displayed in the same order of software version display.
6. Press [DISC 2] button, the key check mode is activated.
7. In the key check mode, the fluorescent indicator tube displays
“K 0 J 0 V 0 E 0”.
Each time a button is pressed, “K” value increases. However,
once a button has been pressed, it is no longer taken into
account.
“J” value increases in the manner of 0,1, 2, 3 ... if [MULTI
JOG] knob is turned clockwise, or it decreases in the manner
of 0, 9, 8, 7 ... if [MULTI JOG] knob is turned counter -clockwise.
“V” value increases in the manner of 0,1, 2, 3 ... if [VOLUME]
knob is turned clockwise, or it decreases in the manner of 0,
9, 8, 7 ... if [VOLUME] knob is turned counter-clockwise.
“E” value increases in the manner of 0,1, 2, 3 ... if
knob is turned clockwise, or it decreases in the manner of 0,
9, 8, 7 ... if
8. When [DISC 3] button is pressed after all LEDs and segments
in fluorescent indicator tube light up, the fluorescent indicator
tube displays “VACS A+B APCC”. A is VACS level which is
trigger by signal level, B is VACS level which is trigger by
temperature and CC is VACS level which is trigger by
APVACS (Abuse Protection VACS).
9. When [EX-CHANGE/DISC SKIP] button is pressed after all
LEDs and segments in fluorescent indicator tube light up,
alternate segments in fluorescent indicator tube would light
up. If you press [EX-CHANGE/DISC SKIP] button again, another
half of alternate segments in fluorescent indicator tube would
light up. Pressing [EX-CHANGE/DISC SKIP] button again
would case all segments lights up.
10. To release this mode, press three buttons in the same manner
as step 1, or disconnect the power cord.
[MC TEST MODE]
• This mode is used to check operations of the respective sections
of Amplifier, Tuner, and Tape.
Procedure:
* To enter MC Test Mode
1. Press x button, [ENTER] button and [DISC 3] button
simultaneously.
2. The CD ring indicators TAPE A and TAPE B indicators flash
on the fluorescent indicator tube. The function is changed to
VIDEO.
.
knob is turned counter-clockwise.
>
.
>
* Check of Amplifier
1. Press [EQ EDIT] button repeatedly until a message “GEQ
MAX” appears on the fluorescent indicator tube. GEQ
increases to its maximum.
2. Press [EQ EDIT] button repeatedly until a message “GEQ MIN”
appears on the fluorescent indicator tube. GEQ increases to
its minimum.
3. Press [EQ EDIT] button repeatedly until a message “GEQ
FLAT” appears on the fluorescent indicator tube. GEQ set to
flat.
4. When the [VOLUME] knob is turned clockwise even slightly,
the sound volume increases to its maximum and a message
“VOLUME MAX” appears.
5. When the [VOLUME] knob is turned counter-clockwise even
slightly, the sound volume decreases to its minimum and a
message “VOLUME MIN” appears.
* Tape function
1. When a tape is inserted in Deck B and recording is started, the
function is changed to VIDEO automatically . When [CD SYNC]
button is pressed during recording in function, ALC (Automatic
Logic Control) is turned on.
2. During recording, turn
rotation will change the function to T APE B and rewind Tape
B until the recording start position and playback of Tape B is
started. If the [REC PAUSE/ START] button is pressed for a
pause and pressed again to resume recording during recording
time, when tape deck B is rewind, tape deck B will be rewind
until the position where the pause is applied.
* AMS Test Mode
1. Select the function “TAPE A” or “TAPE B”.
2. Select Loop or Relay direction mode by pressing the
[DIRECTION TUNER MEMORY] button. Insert a test tape AMS110A or AMS-120 to selected tape deck.
3. Press the [AMP MENU] button to enter the AMS test mode.
