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 flo w) 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 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 component in this product is capable
of emitting radiation exceeding the limit for
Class 1.
This appliance is
claassified 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 specified 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 flexible board is easily damaged and should be handled with
care.

signal level while BB is VACS level which is trigger by APVACS
(Abuse Protection VACS).
9. When [EX-CHANGE] 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] button again, another half of altemate
segments in fluorescent indicator tube would light up. Pressing
[EX-CHANGE] button ag ain would cause all segments lights up.
10. To release from this mode, press three buttons in the same
manner as step 1, or disconnect the power cord.
[MC TEST MODE]

tube.
4. When the [VOLUME] knob is turned clockwise even slightly,
the sound volume increases to its maximum and a message
“VOLUME MAX” appears on the fluorescent indicator tube.
5. When the [VOLUME] knob is turned counter-clockwise even
slightly, the sound volume decreases to its minimum and a
message “VOLUME MIN” appears on the fluorescent indicator
tube.
•Tape function

[VIDEO/MD SWITCHING]
•This mode let you switch from VIDEO to MD and vice-versa.
Procedure:
1. During Power Off, press [FUNCTION] button and ?/1 button
simultaneously. The set power on automatically and the function
will changed to MD. Do the same procedures again to change
from MD to VIDEO.

Precaution
1. Clean the following parts with a denatured alcohol-moistened
swab:
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.

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 RCH.
7. Switches and controls should be set as follows unless otherwise
specified.
8. 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) , [TUNER 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 YEDS-18 (3-702-101-01) 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.

Procedure:
1. Connect oscilloscope to TP102 (FE1) and TP117 (VC).
2. Press the ?/1 button to turn the power ON.
3. Load a disc (YEDS-18) and actuate the focus search. (In
consequence of open and close the disc tray, actuate the focus
search)
4. Confirm that the oscilloscope waveform (S-curve) is
symmetrical between A and B. And confirm peak to peak lev el
within 3 ±0.5 Vp-p.
