CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
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 the 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 leadfree 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 viscous (sticky, less prone to flow) 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.
On power sources
• Use house current, nikel metal hydride rechargeable battery,
LR6 (SG) battery, or car battery.
• For use in your house: For the supplied battery charging
stand, use the AC power adaptor supplied with this recorder.
Do not use any other AC power adaptor since it may cause
the recorder to malfunction

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
Never look into the laser diode emission from right above when
checking it for adjustment. It is feared that you will lose your sight.
NOTES ON HANDLING THE OPTICAL PICK-UP BLOCK
(ABX-1R)
The laser diode in the optical pick-up block may suffer electrostatic break-down easily. When handling it, perform soldering
bridge to the laser-tap on the flexible board. Also perform measures against electrostatic break-down sufficiently before the operation. The flexible board is easily damaged and should be handled
with care.
SECTION 1
SERVICING NOTES
• In performing the repair with the power supplied to the set, removing the MAIN board causes the set to be disabled.
In such a case, fix a convex part of the open/close detect switch
(S803 on MAIN board) with a tape in advance.
• Handle the FLEXIBLE board (over write head) with care, as it
has been soldered directly to the MAIN board.
In repairing the component side of MAIN board, connect the
FLEXIBLE board (over write head) and the MAIN board with
the lead wires in advance.

remote commander with the following order:
> t > t . t . t > t
. t > t . t t
Note: If electrical adjustment (CD and MO overall adjustment) has not
been finished completely, “ERROR” is displayed on LCDs of the
set and the remote commander.
Operation in Setting the Test Mode
•When the test mode becomes active, first the display check mode
is selected.
• Other mode can be selected from the display check mode.
•When the test mode is set, the LCD repeats the following display.
Remote commander LCD display

Releasing the Test Mode
For test mode set with the method 1:
Turn off the power and open the solder bridge on SL803 (TEST)
on the MAIN board.
Note: Remove the solders completely. Remaining could be shorted with
the chassis, etc.
For test mode set with the method 2 or 3:
Turn off the power.

SECTION 4
TEST MODE
Outline
•This set provides the Overall adjustment mode that allows CD
and MO discs to be automatically adjusted when in the test mode.
In this overall adjustment mode, the disc is discriminate between
CD and MO, and each adjustment is automatically executed in
order. If a fault is found, the system displays its location. Also,
the manual mode allows each individual adjustment to be automatically adjusted.
• Operation in the test mode is performed with the set. A key
having no particular description in the text, indicates a set key.
•For the LCD display, the LCD on the remote commander is
shown, but the contents of LCD display on the set are same.
(Both displays may be displayed.)
Setting Method of Test Mode
There are three different methods to set the test mode:
1 Short SL803 (TEST) on the MAIN board with a solder bridge
(connect pin <zx. of IC801 to the ground) and turn on the power.

Configuration of Test Mode
Manual Mode
Mode to adjust or check the operation of the set by function.
Normally, the adjustment in this mode is not executed.
However, the Manual mode is used to clear the memory, power
supply adjustment, and laser power check before performing
automatic adjustments in the Overall Adjustment mode.
The manual mode consists of a major item, a medium item and a
minor item.
The manual mode is divided into four groups of major items.
SERVO : item number 000 - 500, 800 AUDIO : item number 600 POWER : item number 700 OP : item number 900 A medium item divides a major item and is used to select functions.
In a minor item, adjustments or operation checks are performed.

Self-Diagnosis Result Display Mode
This set uses the self-diagnostic function system in which if an
error occurred during the recording or playing, the mechanism
control block and the power supply control block in the
microcomputer detect it and record its cause as history in the
nonvolatile memory.
By checking this history in the test mode, you can analyze a fault
and determine its location.
Total recording time is recorded as a guideline of how long the
optical pick-up has been used, and by comparing it with the total
recording time at the time when an error occurred in the selfdiagnosis result display mode, you can determine when the error
occurred.
Clear both self-diagnosis history data and total recording time, if
the optical pick-up was replaced.
• Self-diagnosis result display mode setting method
1. Set the test mode (see page 11).
2. In the display check mode, turning the jog dial (down) or pressing the [DISPLAY] key on the remote commander activates
the self-diagnosis result display mode where the LCD display
as shown below.
3. Then, each time the
> key is pressed, LCD display descends
by one as shown below. Also, the LCD display ascends by one
when the . key is pressed.
If the jog dial (down) is turned or the [DISPLAY] key on remote
commander is pressed with this display, the LCD switches to the
simple display mode.
4. Quit the self-diagnosis result display mode, and press the x
key to return to the test mode (display check mode).
5. The display changes a shown below each time the jog
dial (down) is turned or the [DISPLAY] key on the remote
commander is pressed.
However in the power mode (item number 700’s), only the
item is displayed.
6. Quit the manual mode, and press the
x key to return to the
test mode (display check mode).
Overall Adjustment Mode
Mode to adjust the servo automatically in all items.
Normally, automatic adjustment is executed in this mode at the
repair.
