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 waveforms is output three times.

TEST MODE

[MC Cold Reset]
• The cold reset clears all data including preset data stored in the RAM to initial conditions. Execute this mode when returning the set to the customer.
Procedure:
1. Turn the power ON or set to the DEMO mode.
2. Press three buttons of x (TC-B) , TUNER ENTER , and \/1 simultaneously.
3. The set is reset, and displays “COLD RESET”, then becomes DEMO mode.
[Change-over the AM Tuning Interval]
• The AM tuning interval can be changed over 9 kHz or 10 kHz.
Procedure:
1. Press the \/1 button to turn the power ON.
2. Select the function “TUNER”, and press the TUNER/BAND button to select the BAND “AM”.
3. Press the \/1 button to turn the power OFF.
4. Press the ENTER and \/1 buttons simultaneously, and the display on the fluorescent indicator tube changes to “AM 9 K STEP” or “AM 10 K STEP”, and thus the tuning interval is changed over.
[CD Ship Mode] (No memory clear)
• This mode moves the optical pick-up to the position durable to vibration. Use this mode when returning the set to the customer after repair.
Procedure:
1. Press the \/1 button to turn the power ON.
2. Press the EDIT and
3. A message “LOCK” is displayed on the fluorescent indicator tube, and the CD delivery mode is set.
[LED and Fluorescent Indicator Tube All Lit, Key Check Mode]
Procedure:
1. Press three buttons of x (TC-B) , TUNER ENTER ,and DISC 2 simultaneously.
2. LEDs and fluorescent indicator tube are all turned on.
3. Press the DISC 1 button, the MODE and DESTINATION are displayed fluorescent indicator tube.
4. Each time the DISC 1 button is pressed, the MC/GC category version is displayed in the following order.
5. Press the DISC 2 button, and the key check mode is acti-vated.
NR MC GC CD CDDM CDMA
6. In the key check mode, the fluorescent indicator tube displays “K 0 J0 V0”. Each time a button is pressed, “K” value in-creases to “K69”call the button is pressed.However, once a button is pressed, it is no longer taken into account. “V” value increases like 1, 2, 3 ... if turn the VOLUME dial clockwise (“+” direction), or it decreases like 0, 9, 8 ... if turn the VOLUME dial counterclockwise (“–” direction).
7. To release from this mode, press three buttons in the same manner as step 1, or disconnect the power cord.
buttons simultaneously.

[Sled Servo Mode] (CD service mode)
This mode can run the CD sled motor freely. Use this mode, for instance, when cleaning the pick-up.
Procedure:
1. Select the function CD”.
2. Press three buttons x (TC-B) , TUNER ENTER , and DISC 5 simultaneously.
3. The Sled Servo mode is selected, if CD is blanking on the fluorescent indicator tube.
4. With the CD in stop status, press M button in CD section to move the pick-up to outside track, or m button to inside track.
5. To exit from this mode, press OFF.
Note:
Always move the pick-up to most inside track when exiting from this mode. Otherwise, a disc will not be unloaded.
Do not run the sled motor excessively, otherwise the gear can be chipped.
[Change-over of FUNCTION Name]
The FUNCTION name of external input terminal can be changed over to VIDEO or MD. W ith the FUNCTION selected to MD”, about 5dB mute is applied to the input gain.
Procedure:
1. Press \/1 button to turn the power OFF.
2. Press several seconds, and the power is turned on, the display of fluorescent indicator tube changes to MD or VIDEO instantaneously, and thus the FUNCTION is changed over.
[Aging Mode]
This mode can be used for operation check of tape deck section. Tape deck section work in parallel.
If an error occurred: The aging operation stops and display then status.
If no error occurs: The aging operation continues repeatedly.
Procedure:
1. Load the tapes into the decks A and B respectively.
2. Press the FUNCTION button to select the function CD”.
3. Press the PLAY MODE button to set the ALL DISCS mode, and press the REPEAT button to REPEAT off.
4. Press three buttons of x (TC-B) , TUNER ENTER ,and DISC 4 simultaneously.
5. The aging mode is activated, if the indicator of disc tray num­ber on the fluorescent indicator tube is blinking.
6. To release from the aging mode, press the \/1 button to turn the power OFF and operate the cold reset. (Refer to the MC Cold Reset”)

MECHANICAL ADJUSTMENTS

Precaution
1. Clean the following parts with a denatured alcohol-moistened swab:
record/playback heads pinch rollers erase head rubber belts capstan idlers
2. Demagnetize the record/playback head with a head demagne­tizer.
3. Do not use a magnetized screwdriver for the adjustments.
4. After the adjustments, apply suitable locking compound to the parts adjusted.
5. The adjustments should be performed with the rated power sup­ply voltage unless otherwise noted.

ELECTRICAL ADJUSTMENTS

DECK SECTION 0 dB = 0.775 V
Precaution
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 adjust.
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 R-CH.
7. Switches and controls should be set as follows unless other­wise specified.
8. Set to the DOLBY NR OFF.
9. Set to the test mode. (1) Press the \/1 button to turn the power ON. (2) Select the function “TAPE A or B”. (3) Press the button of x (TC-B) , ENTER ,and DISC 3
simultaneously, to set the tape deck test mode and displays “TEST MODE” on the fluorescent indicator tube.
(4) To release from the test mode, press the \/1 button.

CD SECTION
Note :
1. CD Block is basically designed to operate without adjustment. Therefore, check each item in order given.
2. Use LUV-P01 (4-999-032-01) unless otherwise indicated.
3. Use an oscilloscope with more than 10M 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.
S-Curve Check

Procedure :
1. Connect oscilloscope to TP (FE).
2. Connect between TP (FE) and TP (DVC ( 1.65 V) by lead wire.
3. Press the \/1 button to turn the power ON.
4. Load a disc (LUV -P01) and actuate the focus search. (In conse­quence of open and close the disc tray, actuate the focus search)
5. Confirm that the oscilloscope waveform (S-curve) is symmetri­cal between A and B. And confirm peak to peak level within 2 ±0.5 Vp-p.

2. Press the \/1 button to turn the power ON.
3. Load a disc (LUV-P01) and playback.
4. Confirm that oscilloscope waveform is clear and check RF signal level is correct or not.
