1.1.2 Safety Check after Servicing
Examine the area surrounding the repaired location for damage
or deterioration. Observe that screws, parts and wires have been
returned to original positions, Afterwards, perform the following
tests and confirm the specified values in order to verify compli-
ance with safety standards.
(1) Insulation resistance test
Confirm the specified insulation resistance or greater be-
tween power cord plug prongs and externally exposed
parts of the set (RF terminals, antenna terminals, video and
audio input and output terminals, microphone jacks, ear-
phone jacks, etc.).
See table 1 below.
(2) Dielectric strength test
Confirm specified dielectric strength or greater between
power cord plug prongs and exposed accessible parts of
the set (RF terminals, antenna terminals, video and audio
input and output terminals, microphone jacks, earphone
jacks, etc.). See Fig.11 below.
(3) Clearance distance
When replacing primary circuit components, confirm spec-
ified clearance distance (d), (d') between soldered termi-
nals, and between terminals and surrounding metallic
parts. See Fig.11 below.
Fig.8
(4) Leakage current test
Confirm specified or lower leakage current between earth
ground/power cord plug prongs and externally exposed ac-
cessible parts (RF terminals, antenna terminals, video and
audio input and output terminals, microphone jacks, ear-
phone jacks, etc.).
Measuring Method : (Power ON)
Insert load Z between earth ground/power cord plug
prongs and externally exposed accessible parts. Use an
AC voltmeter to measure across both terminals of load Z.
See Fig.9 and following Fig12.
Fig.9
(5) Grounding (Class 1 model only)
Confirm specified or lower grounding impedance between
earth pin in AC inlet and externally exposed accessible
parts (Video in, Video out, Audio in, Audio out or Fixing
screw etc.).

SPECIFIC SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
2.1 BEFORE ASSEMBLY AND DISASSEMBLY
2.1.1 Precautions
1. Be sure to disconnect the power supply unit prior to mount-
ing and soldering of parts.
2. Prior to removing a component part that needs to disconnect
its connector(s) and its screw(s), first disconnect the wire(s)
from the connector(s), and then remove the screw(s).
3. When connecting/disconnecting wires, pay enough atten-
tion not to damage the connectors.
4. Be careful in removing or handling the part to which some
spacer or shield is attached for reinforcement or insulation.
5. When replacing chip parts (especially IC parts), first remove
the solder completely to prevent peeling of the pattern.
6. Tighten screws properly during the procedures. Unless
specified otherwise, tighten screws at a torque of
0.196N•m (2.0kgf•cm).
2.1.2 Assembly and disassembly
(1) Order of steps in Procedure
When reassembling, preform the step(s) in the reverse
order. These numbers are also used as the identification
(location) No. of parts Figures.
(2) Part to be removed or installed.
(3) Fig. No. showing Procedure or Part Location.
(4) Identification of part to be removed, unhooked, unlocked,
released, unplugged, unclamped or unsoldered.
(5) Adjustment information for installation.
2.1.3 Destination of connectors
2.1.4 Disconnection of connectors (Wires)
Pull both ends of the connector in the arrow direction, remove the
lock and disconnect the flat wire.
Fig.2-1-1
Extend the locks in the direction of the arrow for unlocking and
then pull out the wire. After removing the wire, immediately re-
store the locks to their original positions because the locks are
apt to come off the connector.
Fig.2-1-2
2.1.5 Tools required for disassembly and assembly

2.5 ASSEMBLY AND DISASSEMBLY OF [2]OP BLOCK ASSEMBLY
CCD BOARD ASSEMBLY (CAMERA SECTION AND BOARD ASSEMBLY)
2.5.1 Precautions
(1) Take care in handling the CCD IMAGE SENSOR, OP LPF
and lens components when performing maintenance etc.,
especially with regard to surface contamination, attached
dust or scratching. If fingerprints are present on the surface
they should be wiped away using either a silicon paper,
clean chamois or the cleaning cloth.
(2) The CCD IMAGE SENSOR may have been shipped with a
protective sheet attached to the transmitting glass. When
replacing the CCD IMAGE SENSOR, do not peel off this
sheet from the new part until immediately before it is
mounted in the OP BLOCK ASSEMBLY.
(3) The orientation of the OP LPF is an important factor for
installation. If there is some marking on the OP LPF, be
sure to note it down before removing and to reassemble it
very carefully as it was referring to the marking.
2.5.2 Disassembly of CCD BOARD ASSEMBLY and CCD
BASE ASSEMBLY
(1) Unsolder the CCD BOARD ASSEMBLY by the 14 points
(SD2) and then remove it.
(2) Remove the two screws (1, 2) and remove the CCD BASE
ASSEMBLY.
(3) Remove the SPACER.
(4) Remove the SHEET.
(5) Remove the OP LPF.
2.5.3 Assembly of CCD BASE ASSEMBLY and CCD
BOARD ASSEMBLY
(1) Set the OP LPF to the OP BLOCK ASSEMBLY so that the
OP side touches the OP BLOCK ASSEMBLY.
NOTE 2a:
Pay careful attention to the orientation of the OP LPF.
(2) Set the SHEET to the OP LPF not to come off the right
position.
(3) Attach the SPACER to the OP BLOCK ASSEMBLY.
(4) Fasten them together with the two screws (1, 2).
(5) Set the CCD BOARD ASSEMBLY in the CCD BASE
ASSEMBLY, and then solder it by the 14 points (SD2).
2.5.4 Replacement of service repair parts
The service repair parts for the OP BLOCK ASSEMBLY are as
listed below.
Before replacement of these parts, remove the BRACKET (OP
BLOCK ASSEMBLY) as required.
Take special care not to disconnect any of the FPC wires or
cause any damage due to soldering (excessive heating).
(1) FOCUS MOTOR
(2) ZOOM MOTOR
(3) IRIS MOTOR UNIT
NOTE 2b:
When replacing the FOCUS MOTOR or the ZOOM MOTOR,
solder the FPC at a space of about 1 mm above the terminal
pin.

2.6 EMERGENCY DISPLAY
Whenever some abnormal signal is input to the mechacon CPU,
an error number (E01, as an example) is displayed in the elec-
tronic view finder. In every error status, such the message as
shown below alternately appear over and over.
• In an emergency mode, all operations except turning on/off the
POWER switch are ineffectual.
(PAL)
2.7 AUTOMATIC DEMONSTRATION
Automatic Demonstration takes place when “DEMO MODE” is
set to “ON” (factory-preset).
(1) Available when the Power Switch is set to “A” or “M” while
pressing down the Lock Button located on the switch.
(2) Performing any operation during the demonstration stops
the demonstration temporarily. If no operation is performed
for more than 1 minute after that, the demonstration will
resume.
(3) “DEMO MODE” remains “ON” even if the camcorder power
is turned off.
(4) To cancel Automatic Demonstration, set the Power Switch
to “M” and press the MENU Wheel in while the demo is in
progress. This takes you directly to the demo mode’s Set-
ting Menu (so you will not have to go through the main
Menu Screen). Rotate the MENU Wheel to select “OFF”
and press it.
NOTE:
• When a tape whose Erase Protection tab is in the position
that allows recording is loaded in the
camcorder, demonstration is not available.
• If you do not detach the Lens Cap, you cannot see the actual
changes of the Automatic Demonstration activated on the
LCD monitor* or viewfinder.
* Applicable models only.

2.8 TAKE OUT CASSETTE TAPE
In the event that the set enters the emergency mode as it is
loaded with a cassette tape and the cassette tape cannot be
ejected with the EJECT button, manually, take it out of the set
according to the following procedure.
NOTE :
• If the mechanism comes into the unloading mode as the cas-
sette tape is not held by hand, it results in tape damage.
(1) Disconnect the set from the power source.
(2) Remove the LOWER CASE ASSEMBLY and TOP OPE
UNIT (see Fig.C1, page 6).
(3) Connect a jumper wire to each pole of the LOADING
MOTOR as shown by the magnified view (Fig. 2-8-1).
(4) While holding down the cassette housing by hand, con-
nect the jumper wires to a battery to run the mechanism
to the EJECT position four unloading. If this unloading
operation is performed as the cassette housing is not
held down by hand, the front lid of the cassette may dam-
age the tape when it is ejected.
(5) For taking in the slack of the tape, run the mechanism to
the EJECT position as the front lid of the cassette is left
open, and turn the TAKE-UP GEAR in the forward direc-
tion to wind up the tape. After confirming that the tape
has completely been wound up and the supply reel is
idling, take the cassette tape out of the cassette housing.
