Laser component in this product is capable of emitting radiation
exceeding the limit for Class 1.
This appliance is classified as a
CLASS 1 LASER product.
The CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT
MARKING is located on the rear
exterior.
CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of proce-
dures other than those specified herein may result in haz-
ardous radiation exposure.
This caution label
is located inside
the unit.
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.

SAFETY CHECK-OUT
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 AC leakage from any exposed metal part to earth ground and
from all exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part having a re-
turn 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. Follow the manufacturers' 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 AC voltmeter. The "limit" indication is 0.75
V, so analog meters must have an accurate low-voltage scale. The
Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63Trd are examples of a passive
VOM that is suitable. Nearly all battery operated digital
multimeters that have a 2V AC range are suitable. (See Fig. A)

NOTES ON LASER DIODE EMISSION CHECK
The laser beam on this model is concentrated so as to be focused on
the disc reflective surface by the objective lens in the optical pick-up
block. Therefore, when checking the laser diode emission, observe
from more than 30 cm away from the objective lens.
SECTION 1
SERVICE NOTE
NOTES ON HANDLING THE OPTICAL PICK-UP BLOCK
OR BASE UNIT
The laser diode in the optical pick-up block may suffer electrostatic
break-down because of the potential difference generated by the
charged electrostatic load, etc. on clothing and the human body.
During repair, pay attention to electrostatic break-down and also use
the procedure in the printed matter which is included in the repair
parts.
The flexible board is easily damaged and should be handled with
care.

Power Supply During Servicing
This unit is not able to operate on its own because it does not have its own power supply. During servicing, connect to other units.
Power is supplied when the SYSTEM POWER button of the amplifier (TA-M7) is turned ON.
If the other units are not available, use a service box (PFJ-1) and jig (J-2501-078-A).
In this case, press the
p button and TIME button and §OPEN/CLOSE button simultaneously to turn on the power.
[Connection Diagram]
Fluorescent Indicator Tube/Key Check Mode
After turning on the power, press the
p button, TIME button, and DISC 1 button simultaneously to perform the Fluorescent indicator tube
check.
The steps of the Fluorescent Indicator Tube check mode will proceed onto the next one by the above multiple pressing.
During the Fluorescent Indicator Tube check mode, press any button or rotate the selector knob to set the key check mode.
To end the mode, press the above three buttons simultaneously.

Note 1)
When the three buttons pressed to enter the Fluorescent Indicator Tube all lit mode are released together, the Fluorescent Indicator
Tube all lit mode will remain on. When released separately, the key check mode will be set soon after the Fluorescent Indicator Tube
all lit mode.
In `'multiple pressing", if the three buttons are pressed and released together, the next mode will be set. If not, the key check mode will
be set.
Note 2)
In the key check mode, each time the button is pressed, the "KEY=" number on the Fluorescent indicator tube increases. When the
SELECTOR knob is rotated, the "KEY=" number on the Fluorescent indicator tube increases in the + direction and decreases in the
­ direction.
