SELF-DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
The self-diagnosis function consists of error codes for customers which are displayed automatically when errors occur, and error codes
which show the error history in the test mode during servicing. For details on how to view error codes for the customer, refer to the
following box in the instruction manual. For details on how to check error codes during servicing, refer to the following "Procedure for
using the Self-Diagnosis Function (Error History Display Mode)".
PROCEDURE FOR USING THE SELF-DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION (ERROR HISTORY DISPLAY MODE)
Note: Perform the self-diagnosis function in the "error history display mode" in the test mode. The following describes the least required procedure. Be
careful not to enter other modes by mistake. If you set other modes accidentally, press the MENU/NO button to exit the mode.
1. Press the x (CD), [CLEAR] (CD), x (MD) and [CLEAR] (MD) buttons at the same time.
2. Press the [
AMS
] (MD) knob and x (MD) button to display " <0> To Normal".
3. Turn the [
AMS
] (MD) knob and when " <5> MD Test" is displayed, press the [
AMS
] (MD) knob.
4. Turn the [
AMS
] (MD) knob and when "[Service]" is displayed, press the [YES] button.
5. Turn the [
AMS
] (MD) knob to display "ERR DP MODE".
6. Press the [YES] button to sets the error history mode and displays "total rec".
7. Select the contents to be displayed or executed using the [
AMS
] (MD) knob.
8. Press the [
AMS
] (MD) knob to display or execute the contents selected.
9. Press the [

total err
Displays the total number of errors.
Displayed as "total ss".
The number of errors is displayed in hexadecimal digits from 00 to FF.
err history
Displays the 10 latest errors.
Displayed as "0s E@@".
s indicates the history number. The smaller the number, the more recent is the error. (00 is the latest).
@@ indicates the error code.
Refer to the following table for the details. The error history can be switched by turning the [
AMS
]
(MD) knob.
er refresh
Mode which erases the "retry err", "total err", and "err history" histories.
When returning the unit to the customer after completing repairs, perform this to erase the past error history.
After pressing the [
AMS
] (MD) knob and "er refresh?" is displayed, press the [YES] button to erase
the history.
"Complete!" will be displayed momentarily.
Be sure to check the following when this mode has been executed.
· The data has been erased.
· The mechanism operates normally when recording and play are performed.
tm refresh
Mode which erases the "total rec" and "total play" histories.
These histories serve as approximate indications of when to replace the optical pick-up.
If the optical pickup has been replaced, perform this operation and erase the history.
After pressing the [
AMS
] (MD) knob and "tm refresh?" is displayed, press the [YES] button to erase
the history.
"Complete!" will be displayed momentarily.
Be sure to check the following when this mode has been executed.
· The data has been erased.
· The mechanism operates normally when recording and play are performed.

SAFETY CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the follow-
ing safety check 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 TEST
The AC leakage from any exposed metal part to earth ground and
from all exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part having a
return to chassis, must not exceed 0.5 mA (500 microamperes.).
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" indica-
tion is 0.75 V, so analog meters must have an accurate low-
voltage scale. The Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63Trd are ex-
amples of a passive VOM that is suitable. Nearly all battery
operated digital multimeters that have a 2 V AC range are suit-
able. (See Fig. A)

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 radia-
tion exceeding the limit for Class 1.
This caution
label is located
inside the unit.
CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
other than those specified herein may result in hazardous ra-
diation exposure.
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.
LASER DIODE AND FOCUS SEARCH OPERATION
CHECK
Carry out the "S curve check" in "CD section adjustment" and
check that the S curve waveforms is output three times.

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 chip component replacement
· Never reuse a disconnected chip component.
· Notice that the minus side of a tantalum capacitor may be dam-
aged by heat.
ADVARSEL!

CAUTION
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced.
Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by
the manufacturer.
Discard used batteries according to the manufacturer's instruc-
tions.
