SECTION 1
Important Safety Precautions
1.1 Safety Precautions
(1) This design of this product contains special hardware and
many circuits and components specially for safety purposes.
For continued protection, no changes should be made to the
original design unless authorized in writing by the man-
ufacturer. Replacement parts must be identical to those
used in the original circuits. Services should be per-
formed by qualified personnel only.
(2) Alterations of the design or circuitry of the product should
not be made. Any design alterations of the product should
not be made. Any design alterations or additions will void
the manufacturers warranty and will further relieve the
manufacture of responsibility for personal injury or property
damage resulting therefrom.
(3) Many electrical and mechanical parts in the products have
special safety-related characteristics. These characteris-
tics are often not evident from visual inspection nor can the
protection afforded by them necessarily be obtained by us-
ing replacement components rated for higher voltage, watt-
age, etc. Replacement parts which have these special safety
characteristics are identified in the Parts List of Service Manu-
al. Electrical components having such features are iden-
tified by shading on the schematics and by ( ) on the
Parts List in the Service Manual. The use of a substitute re-
placement which does not have the same safety character-
istics as the recommended replacement parts shown in the
Parts List of Service Manual may create shock, fire, or oth-
er hazards.
(4) The leads in the products are routed and dressed with ties,
clamps, tubings, barriers and the like to be separated from
live parts, high temperature parts, moving parts and/or
sharp edges for the prevention of electric shock and fire
hazard. When service is required, the original lead routing
and dress should be observed, and it should be confirmed
that they have been returned to normal, after reassembling.
(5) Leakage shock hazard testing)
After reassembling the product, always perform an isolation
check on the exposed metal parts of the product (antenna
terminals, knobs, metal cabinet, screw heads, headphone
jack, control shafts, etc.) to be sure the product is safe to
operate without danger of electrical shock.
Do not use a line isolation transformer during this check.
· Plug the AC line cord directly into the AC outlet. Using a
"Leakage Current Tester", measure the leakage current
from each exposed metal parts of the cabinet, particular-
ly any exposed metal part having a return path to the
chassis, to a known good earth ground. Any leakage cur-
rent must not exceed 0.5mA AC (r.m.s.).
· Alternate check method
Plug the AC line cord directly into the AC outlet. Use an AC
voltmeter having, 1,000 ohms per volt or more sensitivity in
the following manner. Connect a 1,500 ohm 10W resistor
paralleled by a 0.15 µF AC-type capacitor between an
exposed metal part and a known good earth ground.
Measure the AC voltage across the resistor with the AC
voltmeter.
Move the resistor connection to each exposed metal part,
particularly any exposed metal part having a return path to
the chassis, and measure the AC voltage across the resistor.
Now, reverse the plug in the AC outlet and repeat each
measurement. Voltage measured any must not exceed 0.75
V AC (r.m.s.). This corresponds to 0.5 mA AC (r.m.s.).
1.2 Warning
(1) This equipment has been designed and manufactured to
meet international safety standards.
(2) It is the legal responsibility of the repairer to ensure that
these safety standards are maintained.
(3) Repairs must be made in accordance with the relevant
safety standards.
(4) It is essential that safety critical components are replaced
by approved parts.
(5) If mains voltage selector is provided, check setting for local
voltage.
1.3 Caution
Burrs formed during molding may be left over on some parts
of the chassis.
Therefore, pay attention to such burrs in the case of pre-
forming repair of this system.
1.4 Critical parts for safety
In regard with component parts appearing on the silk-screen
printed side (parts side) of the PWB diagrams, the parts that are
printed over with black such as the resistor (
), diode (
)
and ICP (
) or identified by the "
" mark nearby are critical
for safety.
When replacing them, be sure to use the parts of the same type
and rating as specified by the manufacturer. (Except the JC version)

Caution: For continued protection against risk of
fire, replace only with same type 6A/125V for F001,
3.15A/125V for F103, 8A/125V for F101 and F102.
This symbol specifies type of fast operating fuse.
Precaution: Pour eviter risques de feux, remplacez
le fusible de surete de F001 comme le meme type
que 6A/125V, de F103 que 3.15A/125V, et 8A/250V
pour F101 et F102.
Ce sont des fusibles suretes qui functionnes rapide.

1.6 Preventing static electricity
Electrostatic discharge (ESD), which occurs when static electricity stored in the body, fabric, etc. is discharged,
can destroy the laser diode in the traverse unit (optical pickup). Take care to prevent this when performing repairs.
1.6.1
Grounding to prevent damage by static electricity
Static electricity in the work area can destroy the optical pickup (laser diode) in devices such as CD players.
Be careful to use proper grounding in the area where repairs are being performed.
(1) Ground the workbench
Ground the workbench by laying conductive material (such as a conductive sheet) or an iron plate over it before placing the
traverse unit (optical pickup) on it.
(2) Ground yourself
Use an anti-static wrist strap to release any static electricity built up in your body.
(3) Handling the optical pickup
· In order to maintain quality during transport and before installation, both sides of the laser diode on the replacement optical
pickup are shorted. After replacement, return the shorted parts to their original condition.
(Refer to the text.)
· Do not use a tester to check the condition of the laser diode in the optical pickup. The tester's internal power source can easily
destroy the laser diode.
1.7 Handling the traverse unit (optical pickup)
(1) Do not subject the traverse unit (optical pickup) to strong shocks, as it is a sensitive, complex unit.
(2) Cut off the shorted part of the flexible cable using nippers, etc. after replacing the optical pickup. For specific details, refer to the replace-
ment procedure in the text. Remove the anti-static pin when replacing the traverse unit. Be careful not to take too long a time
when attaching it to the connector.
(3) Handle the flexible cable carefully as it may break when subjected to strong force.
(4) I t is not possible to adjust the semi-fixed resistor that adjusts the laser power. Do not turn it.
1.8 Attention when traverse unit is decomposed
*Please refer to "Disassembly method" in the text for the CD pickup unit.
· Apply solder to the short land sections before the flexible wire is disconnected from the connector CN101 on the CD servo board.
(If the flexible wire is disconnected without applying solder, the CD pickup may be destroyed by static electricity.)
· In the assembly, be sure to remove solder from the short land sections after connecting the flexible wire.
