SERVICING NOTICES ON CHECKING
6. AVOID AN X-RAY1. KEEP THE NOTICES
As for the places which need special attentions,
they are indicated with the labels or seals on the
cabinet, chassis and parts. Make sure to keep
the indications and notices in the operation
manual.
3. USE THE DESIGNATED PARTS
5. TAKE CARE TO DEAL WITH THE
CATHODE-RAY TUBE
In the condition that an explosion-proof
cathode-ray tube is set in this equipment, safety
is secured against implosion. However, when
removing it or serving from backward, it is
dangerous to give a shock. Take enough care
to deal with it.
Safety is secured against an X-ray by consider-
ing about the cathode-ray tube and the high
voltage peripheral circuit, etc.
Therefore, when repairing the high voltage pe-
ripheral circuit, use the designated parts and
make sure not modify the circuit.
Repairing except indicates causes rising of high
voltage, and it emits an X-ray from the cathode-
ray tube.
HOW TO ORDER PARTS
PERFORM A SAFETY CHECK AFTER
SERVICING
7.
Confirm that the screws, parts and wiring which
were removed in order to service are put in the
original positions, or whether there are the
portions which are deteriorated around the
serviced places serviced or not. Check the
insulation between the antenna terminal or
external metal and the AC cord plug blades.
And be sure the safety of that.
(INSULATION CHECK PROCEDURE)
1.
2.
3.
4.
Unplug the plug from the AC outlet.
Remove the antenna terminal on TV and turn
on the TV.
Insulation resistance between the cord plug
terminals and the eternal exposure metal
[Note 2] should be more than 1M ohm by
using the 500V insulation resistance meter
[Note 1].
If the insulation resistance is less than 1M
ohm, the inspection repair should be
required.
[Note 1]
If you have not the 500V insulation
resistance meter, use a Tester.
[Note 2]
External exposure metal:Antenna terminal
Earphone jack
2. AVOID AN ELECTRIC SHOCK
There is a high voltage part inside. Avoid an
electric shock while the electric current is
flowing.
The parts in this equipment have the specific
characters of incombustibility and withstand
voltage for safety. Therefore, the part which is
replaced should be used the part which has
the same character.
Especially as to the important parts for safety
which is indicated in the circuit diagram or the
table of parts as a mark, the designated
parts must be used.
4. PUT PARTS AND WIRES IN THE
ORIGINAL POSITION AFTER
ASSEMBLING OR WIRING
There are parts which use the insulation
material such as a tube or tape for safety, or
which are assembled in the condition that
these do not contact with the printed board.
The inside wiring is designed not to get closer
to the pyrogenic parts and high voltage parts.
Therefore, put these parts in the original
positions.
Please include the following informations when you order parts. (Particularly the VERSION LETTER.)
