IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Product Safety Notice

Some electrical and mechanical parts have special safety-related characteristics which are often not evident from visual inspection, nor can the protection they give necessarily be obtained by replacing them with components rated for higher voltage, wattage, etc. Parts that have special safety characteristics are identified by a # on schematics and in parts lists. Use of a substitute replacement that does not have the same safety characteristics as the recommended replacement part might create shock, fire, and/or other hazards. The Product’s Safety is under review continuously and new instructions are issued whenever appropriate. Prior to shipment from the factory, our products are carefully inspected to confirm with the recognized product safety and electrical codes of the countries in which they are to be sold. However, in order to maintain such compliance, it is equally important to implement the following precautions when a set is being serviced.

Precautions during Servicing

A. Parts identified by the # symbol are critical for

safety. Replace only with part number specified.

B. In addition to safety, other parts and assemblies

are specified for conformance with regulations applying to spurious radiation. These must also be replaced only with specified replacements. Examples: RF converters, RF cables, noise blocking capacitors, and noise blocking filters, etc.

C. Use specified internal wiring. Note especially:

1) Wires covered with PVC tubing

2) Double insulated wires

3) High voltage leads

D. Use specified insulating materials for hazardous

live parts. Note especially:

1) Insulation tape

2) PVC tubing

3) Spacers

4) Insulators for transistors

E. When replacing AC primary side components

(transformers, power cord, etc.), wrap ends of wires securely about the terminals before soldering.

F. Observe that the wires do not contact heat

producing parts (heat sinks, oxide metal film resistors, fusible resistors, etc.).

G. Check that replaced wires do not contact sharp

edges or pointed parts.

H. When a power cord has been replaced, check that

5 - 6 kg of force in any direction will not loosen it.

I. Also check areas surrounding repaired locations. J. Be careful that foreign objects (screws, solder

droplets, etc.) do not remain inside the set.

K. When connecting or disconnecting the internal

connectors, first, disconnect the AC plug from the AC outlet.

1-3-1 DVDN_ISP

Safety Check after Servicing

Examine the area surrounding the repaired location for damage or deterioration. Observe that screws, parts, and wires have been returned to their original positions. Afterwards, do the following tests and confirm the specified values to verify compliance with safety standards.

1. Clearance Distance

When replacing primary circuit components, confirm specified clearance distance (d) and (d’) between soldered terminals, and between terminals and surrounding metallic parts. (See Fig. 1)

Table 1: Ratings for selected area

Chassis or Secondary Conductor

Primary Circuit

AC Line Voltage Clearance Distance (d), (d’)

120 V ≥ 3.2 mm (0.126 inches)

Note: This table is unofficial and for reference only. Be

sure to confirm the precise values.

2. Leakage Current Test

Confirm the specified (or lower) leakage current between B (earth ground, power cord plug prongs) and externally exposed accessible parts (RF terminals, antenna terminals, video and audio input and output terminals, microphone jacks, earphone jacks, etc.) is lower than or equal to the specified value in the table below.

Measuring Method (Power ON):

Insert load Z between B (earth ground, power cord plug prongs) and exposed accessible parts. Use an AC voltmeter to measure across the terminals of load Z. See Fig. 2 and the following table.

2. Remove the flat pack-IC with tweezers while applying the hot air.

3. Bottom of the flat pack-IC is fixed with glue to the CBA; when removing entire flat pack-IC, first apply soldering iron to center of the flat pack-IC and heat up. Then remove (glue will be melted). (Fig. S-1-6)

4. Release the flat pack-IC from the CBA using tweezers. (Fig. S-1-6)

CAUTION:

1. The Flat Pack-IC shape may differ by models. Use an appropriate hot-air flat pack-IC desoldering machine, whose shape matches that of the Flat Pack-IC.

2. Do not supply hot air to the chip parts around the flat pack-IC for over 6 seconds because damage to the chip parts may occur. Put masking tape around the flat pack-IC to protect other parts from damage. (Fig. S-1-2)

1-4-1 DVDN_SN

3. The flat pack-IC on the CBA is affixed with glue, so be careful not to break or damage the foil of each pin or the solder lands under the IC when removing it.

With Soldering Iron:

1. Using desoldering braid, remove the solder from all pins of the flat pack-IC. When you use solder flux which is applied to all pins of the flat pack-IC, you can remove it easily. (Fig. S-1-3)

Instructions for Handling Semiconductors

Electrostatic breakdown of the semi-conductors may occur due to a potential difference caused by electrostatic charge during unpacking or repair work.

1. Ground for Human Body

Be sure to wear a grounding band (1 MΩ) that is properly grounded to remove any static electricity that may be charged on the body.

2. Ground for Workbench

Be sure to place a conductive sheet or copper plate with proper grounding (1 MΩ) on the workbench or other surface, where the semi-conductors are to be placed. Because the static electricity charge on clothing will not escape through the body grounding band, be careful to avoid contacting semi-conductors with your clothing.

HANDLING PRECAUTIONS FOR HDD

CAUTION:

1. SHOCK

a. Exposing HDD to shock may be the biggest

damaging factor. Please note that HDD is easily damaged even if dropped from any height. Be sure to place HDD on a shock-absorbent mat. Also, be careful when transporting HDD.

b. Be careful not to subject HDD to any shock when

tightening screws for HDD replacement.

(Tighten screws manually, not with an electric driver.)

2. MOISTURE

a. Moisture may also be a damaging factor. HDD is

semiclosed style. Sudden changes in ambient temperature may cause moisture to form. Monitor temperature and do not allow moisture to form on the media surface. Also, when opening HDD package, do so only after package is at ambient temperature.

b. After replacing HDD, leave it to reach room

temperature (about 2 hours) for preventing dew internal condensation, and then work necessary task such as operation check.

4. OTHERS

a. Be careful so as not to do the followings.

Otherwise, HDD might be damaged.

- DO NOT disassemble HDD.

- When handling HDD, be sure to hold both sides securely.

b. HDD should be stored, packed in the protective

bag, in suitable surroundings (i.e., no extreme changes in temperature to avoid condensation).

c. When transporting HDD, be sure to use the

exclusive packing case (the replacement HDD

carton). d. Do not stack HDDs. e. Do not place vertically because HDD is unstable

and easy to fall.

3. STATIC ELECTRICITY

a. After removing HDD or taking replacement HDD

out of the protective bag (the replacement HDD is packed in a protective bag), place HDD on a conductive surface. A grounding band should be worn when handling.

Grounding Band

Both the conductive surface and grounding band should be grounded.

b. Make sure that HDD is placed on main unit

completely and then let go of it, when assembling.

c. Do not put HDD on a packing bag. (for preventing

electrostatic damage)
