SAFETY CHECK-OUT

e
( US model only )
KP-43T75/48S75/
53N77/53S75/61S75
RM-Y906
After correcting the original service problem, perfom the follow-
ing safety checks before releasing the set to the customer:
l. Check the area of your repair for unsoldered or poorly-sol-
dered connections. Check the entire board surface for solder splashes and bridges.
2. Check the interboard wiring to ensure that no wires are pinched or contact high-wattage resistors.
3. Check that all control knobs, shields, covers, ground straps,
and mounting hardware have been replaced. Be absolutely certain that 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 recommend their replacement.
5. Look for parts which, through functioning, show obvious signs of deterioration. Point them out to the customer and recom mend their replacement.
6. Check the line cords for cracks and abrasion. Recommend the replacement of any such line cord to the customer.
7. Check the condition of the monopole antenna (if any). Make sure the end is not broken off, and has the plastic cap on it. Point out the danger of impalement on a broken antenna to the customer, and recommend the antenna’s replacement.
8. Check the B+ and HV to see they are at the values specified.
Make sure your instruments are accurate;be suspicious of your HV meter if sets always have low HV.
9. Check the antenna temminals, metal trim, metallized knobs, screws, and all other exposed metal parts for AC leakage. Check leakage as described below.
LEAKAGE TEST
The AC leakage from any exposed metal part to earth ground and from all exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part having a return to chassis, must not exceed 0.5mA (500 microampers) . Leak­age current can be measured by any one of three methods.
1. A commercial leakage tester, such as the Simpson 229 or RCA WT-540A. Follow the manufacturers’ instructions to usc these instruments.
2. A battery-operated AC milliammeter. The Data Precision 245 digital multimeter is suitable for this job.
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 low­voltage scale. The Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63Trd are examples of a passive VOM that is suitable. NearIy all bat-
tery operated digital multimeters that have a 2V AC range are suitable. (See Fig. A)
HOW TO FIND A GOOD EARTH GROUND
A cold-water pipe is guaranteed earth ground;the cover-plate re­taining screw on most AC outlet boxes is also at earth ground. If the retaining screw is to be used as your earth-ground, verify that it is at ground by measuring the resistance between it and a cold-
water pipe with an ohmmeter. The reading should be zero ohms. If a cold-water pipe is not accessible, connect a 60-l00 watts trouble light (not a neon lamp) between the hot side of the receptacle and the retaining screw. Try both slots, if necessary, to locate the hot side of the line, the lamp should light at normal brilliance if the
screw is at ground potential. (See Fig. B)

SELF DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION

1. Summary of Self-Diagnosis Function
This device includes a self-diagnosis function.
In case of abnormalities, the TIMER/STANDBY indicator automatically blinks. It is possible to predict the abnormality location
by the number of blinks. The Instruction Manual describes blinking of the TIMER/STANDBY indicator.
If the symptom is not reproduced sometimes in case of a malfunction, there is recording of whether a malfunction was generated
or not. Operate the remote command to confirm the matter on the screen and to predict the location of the abnormality.
2. Diagnosis Items and Prediction of Malfunction Location
When a malfunction occurs the TIMER/STANDBY indicator only blinks for one of the following diagnosis items. In case of two
or more malfunctions, the item which first occurred blinks. If the malfunctions occurred simultaneously, the item with the lower
blink count blinks first.
The screen display displays the results regarding all the diagnosis items listed below. The display 0 means that no malfunc-
tions occurred.

Precautions

Installing and Connecting the Projection TV (continued)
Safety
• Operate the projection TV only on 120 V AC.
• The plug is designed, for safety purposes, to fit into the wall outlet only one way. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, contact your dealer.
• If any liquid or solid object should fall inside the cabinet, unplug the projection TV immediately and have it checked by qualified service personnel before operating it further.
• If you will not be using the projection TV for several days, disconnect the power by pulling the plug itself. Never pull on the cord.

Note on cleaning
Clean the cabinet of the projection TV with a dry soft cloth. To remove dust from the screen, wipe it gently with a soft cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth slightly dampened with solution of mild soap and warm water. Never use strong solvents such as thinner or benzine for cleaning.
If the picture becomes dark after using the projection TV for a long period of time, it may be necessary to clean the inside of the projection TV. Consult qualified service personnel.
Installing
• To prevent internal heat buildup, do not block the ventilation openings.
• Do not install the projection TV in a hot or humid place, or in a place subject to excessive dust or mechanical vibration.
• Avoid operating the projection TV at temperatures below 5° C (41° F).
• If the projection TV is transported directly from a cold to a warm location, or if the room temperature changes suddenly, the picture may be blurred or show poor color. In this case, please wait a few hours to let the moisture evaporate before turning on the projection TV.
• To obtain the best picture, do not expose the screen to direct illumination or direct sunlight. It is recommended to use spot lighting directed down from the ceiling or to cover the windows that face the screen with opaque drapery. It is desirable to install the projection TV in a room where the floor and walls are not of a reflective material.
