1-1. Warnings and Caution
1) These servicing instructions are for use by qualified service personnel only.
2) To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not perform any servicing other than
that contained in the operating instructions unless you are qualified to do so.
3)An isolation transformer should be used during any service to avoid
Possible shock hazard, because of live chassis. The chassis of this receiver is
directly connected to the ac power line.
4) Be sure to follow these guidelines to protect you
avoid causing serious injury :
• Carry the TV with an adequate number of people; larger size TVs require
two or more people.
•Correc
safety and to avoid damages.
5) Components identified by shading andmark on the exploded views,
and in the parts list are critical for safe operation. Replace these

critical for safe operation are identified in this manual. Follow these
procedures whenever critical components are replaced or improper

1-2. Caution Handling of LCD Panel
When repairing the LCD Panel, make sure you are grounded with a wrist band.
When repairing the LCD Panel on the wall, the panel must be secured using the
4 mounting holes on the rear cover.
1) Do not press the panel or frame edge to avoid the risk of electric shock.
2) Do not scratch or press on the panel with any sharp objects.
an extended period of time.
4) Do not expose the LCD panel to direct sunlight.
5) Avoid contact with water. It may cause short circuit within the module.
6) Disconnect the AC power when replacing the backlight (CCFL) or
inverter circuit. (High voltage occurs at the inverter circuit at 650Vrms)
7) Always clean the LCD panel with a soft cloth material.
.
Damaging the wires may cause a short circuit.
9) Protect the panel from ESD to avoid damaging the electronic circuit (C-MOS).
10) During the repair, DO NOT leave the Power On or Burn-in period for more
than 1 hour while the TV is face down on a cloth.
Do not leave Power ON > 1 hour

1-3 Safety Check-Out
After correcting the original service problem, perform the following
safety checks before releasing the set to the customer:-
1) Check the area of your repair for unsoldered or poorly soldered
connections. Check the entire board surface for solder splashes and bridges.
2) Check the inter board wiring to ensure that no wires are pinched or
contact high-wattage resistors.
allcontro
hardware have been replaced. Be absolutely certain you have replaced all
the insulators.
4) Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly transistors that
were installed during a previous repair. Point them out to the customer and
recommen

5) Look for parts which, though functioning show obvious signs of
deterioration. Point them out to the customer and recommend their
replacement.
6) Check the line cords for cracks and abrasion. Recommend the

7) Check the antenna terminals, metal trim, metalized knobs, screws and all
other exposed metal parts for AC leakage. Check leakage test as described

Leakage current can be measured by any one of the three methods:-
1) A commercial leakage tester such as the SIMPSON 229 or RCA WT540A.
Follow the manufacturers instructions to use those instructions.
2) A battery-operated AC milliampmeter The DATA PRECISION 245 digital

3) Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of a VOM or battery
operated AC voltmeter. The 'limit' indication is 0.75V so analog meters must
have an accurate low voltage scale. The SIMPSON'S 250 and SANWA SH63TRD are examples of passive VOMs that are suitable. Nearly all battery

ground by measuring the resistance between it and a cold-water pipe with an
ohmmeter. The reading should be zero ohms.
3) If a cold-water pipe is not accessible, connect a 60- to 100-watt troublelight (not a neon lamp) between the hot side of the receptacle and the
the lamp should light at normal brilliance if the screw is at ground potential

When you insert / pull out FFC, please grasp a reinforcement board and main body of
FFC.
1-6. Lead Free Information
The circuit boards used in these models have been processed using Lead
Free Solder. The boards are identified by the LF logo located close to the
board designation.

e servicing of these boards requires special precautions. It is strongly
recommended to use Lead Free Solder material in order to guarantee optimal
quality of new solder joints.
