in both the operating and the service instructions.
CAUTION: Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly
replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type
recommended by the manufacturer. Discard used batteries
according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Service and Inspection Precautions
1. Obey precautionary markings and
instructions
Labels and stamps on the cabinet, chassis, and components identify
areas requiring special precautions. Be sure to observe these
precautions, as well as all precautions listed in the operating manual
and other associated documents.
2. Use designated parts only
The set’s components possess important safety characteristics, such
as noncombustibility and the ability to tolerate large voltages. Be
sure that replacement parts possess the same safety characteristics as
the originals. Also remember that the ! mark, which appears in
circuit diagrams and parts lists, denotes components that have
particularly important safety functions; be extra sure to use only the
designated components.
CAUTION: The battery pack used in this device may present a
fire or chemical burn hazard if mistreated. Do not disassemble,
heat above 100°C (212°F) or incinerate.
Dispose of used battery promptly.
Keep away from children.
4. Inspect after completing service
After servicing, inspect to make sure that all screws, components,
and wiring have been returned to their original condition. Also check
the area around the repair location to ensure that repair work has caused
no damage, and confirm safety.
5. When replacing chip components...
Never reuse components. Also remember that the negative side of
tantalum capacitors is easily damaged by heat.
6. When handling flexible print boards...
•The temperature of the soldering-iron tip should be about 270C.
•Do not apply the tip more than three times to the same pattern.
•Handle patterns with care; never apply force.
3. Always follow the original design when
mounting parts and routing wires
The original layout includes various safety features, such as inclusion
of insulating materials (tubes and tape) and the mounting of parts
above the printer board. In addition, internal wiring has been routed
and clamped so as to keep it away from hot or high-voltage parts.
When mounting parts or routing wires, therefore, be sure to duplicate
the original layout.
Caution: Remember that hard disk drives are easily damaged by
vibration. Always handle with care.

2-3. How to Start the Diagnostics
Precaution:The supplied floppy disk containing the diagnostics program can be damaged because it will be written the Log
and used as FDD read-write test. Be sure to make a backup of the diagnostics floppy disk and use a backup disk
for diagnostics.
Starting up the diagnostics
• Specify the FDD as the startup drive so that the system boots up from the diagnostics FD.
• Insert the diagnostics CD-ROM media into the CD-ROM bay. Insert the diagnostics FD into the FDD bay. Turn off the
main power of the system once and back on to boot up the system from the diagnostics FD.
• When the system is booted from the diagnostics floppy disk, the start menu appears. Select a desired item to execute the
diagnostics. When PASS is displayed as the result of diagnostics, the test is ended without any errors. When FAIL is
displayed as the result of diagnostics, the test is ended with some errors.
2-4. Test Items
The test items are shown below.

(2) Audio test (Speaker test)
B. Modem loopback test
2-4-3. Short Descriptions of the Test Items
1. Machine configuration
Selects the type of configuration of the PCG-F3 series computer.
Because some diagnostics operate based on the selected configuration, perform this item first of all.
2. Check system bios revision
Indicates the BIOS which is currently used.
3. Check configuration
Tests clocks and CPUID.
4. Battery test group
Performs charging and discharging test of a battery.
A used battery with 30% to 80% already charged battery is necessary.
(1) Battery 1 test
This tests the battery 1.
(2) Battery 2 test
This tests the battery 2.
Start up the battery 2 test program only from the FD image from the DOS command line of the CD-ROM/DVDROM as described below.
Execute the following procedure and insert both the CD-ROM and FDD.
1. Selects “3: Quit MAIN MENU” from the main menu.
2-5 PCG-F340/F350/F360 (UC)
2. The ordinary DOS prompt “A:\>” appears. Input “G:[Enter]”.
Then remove the FDD and insert the battery 2 instead of the FDD.
3. The prompt “G:\>PRG” appears and the active drive is changed. Input “CD \FD” to change directory.
4. When the prompt “G:\FD>” appears, input the command “BATT2”.
5. The battery 2 test starts. Execute the battery 2 test by following the instructions that are displayed.
6. Remove the battery 2 from the bay and insert the FDD that is removed in step 2.
7. When the test is complete, the prompt returns to “G:\FD>”. Input “A:” to change the drive.
8. Input “AUTOEXEC” to return to the main menu.
(3) Fan test
This tests the fan.
5. CD ROM test
Tests the CD-ROM.
6. FDD test
Tests the FDD. Note that the diagnostics floppy disk can be damaged when this test ends in fail.
7. HDD test
Tests the HDD.
8. Touch pad test
Tests the touch pad. Start pressing the keyboard surely from an end of a keyboard.

instruction displayed.
13. Parallel loopback test
Tests the parallel (printer) port. The jig is necessary.
Connect the jig to the parallel port.
14. PC Card test
T ests the PC card. The PC card tester jig is necessary . Insert and remov e the PC card tester in accordance with instruction

Connect the USB jig to the USB port.
17. Port Replicator connector test
To perform this test, the port replicator and USB tester are necessary.
18. IrDA test
Tests the IrDA communication.
To perform this test, the PCG-505G series computer is necessary for communication.
19. Video test
Tests the circuit blocks related to the video display.
