SAFETY CHECK-OUT
T ABLE OF CONTENTS
After correcting the original service problem, perform the
following safety checks before releasing the set to the customer:
Check the antenna terminals, metal trim, “metallized” knobs, screws,
and all other exposed metal parts for AC leakage. Check leakage as
described below.
LEAKAGE
The A C leakag e 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 0.5 mA (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. F ollow the manufactur ers’ instructions to use 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 A C voltmeter . The “limit” indication
is 0.75 V, so analog meters must have an accurate low-v oltage
scale. The Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63Trd are e xamples of
a passive VOM that is suitable. Nearly all battery operated
digital multimeters that have a 2V AC range are suitable. (See
Fig. A)

While depressing the TUNER and the BASS BOOST buttons
simultaneously, press the po wer [I/ u] b utton to turn on the main
power. The software version is displayed.
KEY TEST MODE
* All keys are tested.
* Procedure:
While depressing the CD and the BASS BOOST buttons
simultaneously, press the po wer [I/ u] b utton to turn on the main
power . The message REST40 appears. When the r espective ke ys
are pressed one after another, the number decrements in the order
of REST39, REST38, and so on.
FLUORESCENT INDICATOR TUBE TEST MODE
* All fluorescent segments are tested. When this test is activated,
all segments turn on at the same time, then each segment turns on
one after another.
* Procedure:
While depressing the TV/LD and the BASS BOOST buttons
simultaneously, press the po wer [I/ u] b utton to turn on the main
power . All se gments turn on at the same time, then each segment
turns on one after another.
FACTORY SET MODE
* All preset contents are reset to the default setting.
* Procedure:
While depressing the VIDEO and the BASS BOOST buttons
simultaneously, press the po wer [I/ u] b utton to turn on the main
power . The message F A CTOR Y appears and the present contents
are reset to the default values.
ALL CLEAR MODE
* All preset contents are cleared when this mode is activated. Use
this mode before returning the product to clients upon completion
of repair.
* Procedure:
While depressing the VIDEO and the TAPE/MD buttons
simultaneously, press the po wer [I/u] button to turn on the main
power. The message INITIAL appears and initialization is
performed.
SOUND FIELD CLEAR MODE
* The preset sound field is cleared when this mode is activated.
Use this mode before returning the product to clients upon
completion of repair.
* Procedure:
While depressing the SOUND FIELD ON/OFF button, press the
power [I/u] button to turn on the main po wer . The message S. F.
CLEAR appears and initialization is performed.
AM CHANNEL STEP 9 kHz/10 kHz
SELECTION MODE
* Either the 9 kHz step or 10 kHz step can be selected for the AM
channel step.
* Procedure:
Set the FUNCTION to AM. Turn off the main power.
While depressing the TUNING+ button or the PRESET+ button,
press the power [I/u] button to turn on the main power. Either
the message 9k STEP or 10k STEP appears. Select the desired
step.
DEMO MODE
* Continuous demonstration starts when the demo mode is activated.
* Procedure:
While depressing the CURSOR MODE button, press the power
