Flexible Circuit Board Repairing
• Keep the temperature of 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.
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.

ELECTRICAL ADJUSTMENTS
Note :
1. The adjustments should be performed in the order given. (As a
general rule the transmitter section (TMR-IF630R) adjustments
should be completed before performing the headphones section (MDR-IF630R) adjustment.)
2. The adjustments and measurements should be performed for
both L-ch and R-ch unless otherwise indicated.
3. L-ch adjustment should be completed before performing R-ch
adjustment.
4. Supply 9 V dc to the transmitter section (TMR-IF630R) and
2.4 V dc to the headphones section (MDR-IF630R) as the power
voltage.
