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.

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.
UNLEADED SOLDER
Boards requiring use of unleaded solder are printed with the lead free 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 viscou-s (sticky, less prone to fl ow) 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.
NOTES ON LASER DIODE EMISSION CHECK
The laser beam on this model is concentrated so as to be focused on the disc refl ective surface by the objective lens in the optical pick-up block. Therefore, when checking the laser diode emission, observe from more than 30 cm away from the objective lens.
Laser component in this product is capable of emitting radiation exceeding the limit for Class 1.
This appliance is claassifi ed as a CLASS 1 LASER product. This label is located on the rear exterior.
CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specifi ed herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
NOTES ON HANDLING THE OPTICAL PICK-UP BLOCK OR BASE UNIT
The laser diode in the optical pick-up block may suffer electrostatic breakdown 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 fl exible board is easily damaged and should be handled with care.

3. When you want to enter to the model version and destination
display mode, press [DISC 1] button. The model information appears on the fl uorescent indicator tube.
4. Each time [DISC 1] button is pressed, the display changes to
display software version and date of the software creation. The sequence is SC version, GC version, SYS version, CD version, CDDM version, CDMA version, CDMB version, BDA version, BDB version, ST version, TC version, TA version, TM version, MM1 version, MM2 version and MTR version in this order, and returns to the model version display.
5. Press [DISC 2] button, the key check mode is activated.
6. In the key check mode, the fl uorescent indicator tube displays
“K 0 J0 V0”.
Turn the [OPERATIONAL DIAL] clockwise; “J” value increases
by one. Turn the [OPERATIONAL DIAL] counterclockwise; “J” value decreases by one. Each time a button is pressed, “K” value increases. Press other keys on main unit to check whether the key is detected. However, once a button has been pressed, it is no longer taken into account.
“V” value increases in the manner of 0, 1, 2, 3 ... if [MASTER
VOLUME] knob is turned clockwise, or it decreases in the manner of 0, 9, 8, 7 ... if [MASTER VOLUME] knob is turned
counterclockwise.
7. When [DISC SKIP/EX-CHANGE] button is pressed after all LEDs
and segments in fl uorescent indicator tube light up, alternate segments in fl uorescent indicator tube and LED would light up. If you press [DISC SKIP/EX-CHANGE] button again, another half of alternate segments in fl uorescent indicator tube and LEDs would light up. Press [DISC SKIP/EX-CHANGE] button would
cause all segments in fl uorescent indicator tube and LED turns off. Pressing [DISC SKIP/EX-CHANGE] button again would cause
all LED and segments lights up.
8. To release from this mode, press three buttons in the same man-
ner as step 1, or disconnect the power cord.
