SERVICING NOTES
The laser diode in the optical pick-up block may suffer electro-
static 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.
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 emis-
sion, observe from more than 30 cm away from the objective lens.
Notes on chip component replacement
· Never reuse a disconnected chip component.
· Notice that the minus side of a tantalum capacitor may be dam-
aged by heat.
Flexible Circuit Board Repairing
· Keep the temperature of the soldering iron around 270 °C dur-
ing 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 HANDLING THE OPTICAL PICK-UP
BLOCK OR BASE UNIT
CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
other than those specified herein may result in hazardous ra-
diation exposure.
This appliance is classified as a CLASS 1 LASER product.
The CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT MARKING is located on
the rear exterior.
Laser component in this product is capable of emitting radiation
exceeding the limit for Class 1.
The following caution label is located inside the unit.
CAUTION
: INVISIBLE LASER RADIATION WHEN OPEN AND
INTERLOCKS DEFEATED.
AVOID EXPOSURE TO BEAM.

POWER SUPPLY DURING SERVICING
· As this set has not own power supply, it does not operate inde-
pendently. Therefore, during servicing, connect it to the Pre-
Main amplifier and Tuner Unit (STR-NX1/NX3) of MHC-NX1/
NX3AV.
If STR-NX1/NX3 are not available, use the Power Feed Jig (PFJ-
1) and Relay Connector Jig.
In this case, after turn on the POWER switch on the Power Feed
Jig, supply power with the following methods.
Procedure:
1. Press three buttons of s (DECK B), A (DISC 1),
and s (CD) simultaneously.
2. The G (CD) and S (CD) LEDs blink, and then pressing G
(CD), G / g (DECK A), or G / g (DECK B) button can
make each play possible.
3. Also, the other functions are enabled by pressing two buttons
simultaneously.
A combination of respective functions and buttons is as fol-
lows.

Note 1: In cleaning the lens, do not apply an excessive force.
As the optical pick-up is vulnerable, application of
excessive force could damage the lens holder.
Note 2: In cleaning, do not use a cleaner other than exclusive clean-
ing liquid (KK-91 or isopropyl alcohol).
Note 3: Wipe the objective lens spirally from center toward outside.
