SECTION 1
PRECAUTION
1.1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
(1) The design of this product contains special hardware, many
circuits and components specially for safety purposes. For
continued protection, no changes should be made to the original
design unless authorized in writing by the manufacturer.
Replacement parts must be identical to those used in the original
circuits. Service should be performed by qualified personnel only.
(2) Alterations of the design or circuitry of the products should not be
made. Any design alterations or additions will void the
manufacturer's warranty and will further relieve the manufacturer
of responsibility for personal injury or property damage resulting
therefrom.
(3) Many electrical and mechanical parts in the products have special
safety-related characteristics. These characteristics are often not
evident from visualinspectionnor can the protectionaffordedby them
necessarily be obtained by using replacement components rated for
higher voltage, wattage, etc. Replacement parts which have these
special safety characteristics are identified in the parts list of Service
manual. Electrical components having such features are
identified by shading on the schematics and by ( ) on the
parts list in Service manual. The use of a substitute replacement
which does not have the same safety characteristics as the
recommended replacement part shown in the parts list of Service
manual may cause shock, fire, or other hazards.
(4) Use isolation transformer when hot chassis.
The chassis and any sub-chassis contained in some products are
connected to one side of the AC power line. An isolation
transformer of adequate capacity should be inserted between the
product and the AC power supply point while performing any
service on some products when the HOT chassis is exposed.
(5) Don't short between the LIVE side ground and ISOLATED (NEU-
TRAL) side ground or EARTH side ground when repairing.
Some model's power circuit is partly different in the GND. The differ-
ence of the GND is shownby the LIVE: ( ) side GND, the ISOLAT-
ED (NEUTRAL) : ( ) side GND and EARTH : ( ) side GND.
Don't short between the LIVE side GND and ISOLATED (NEUTRAL)
side GND or EARTH side GND and never measure the LIVE side
GND and ISOLATED (NEUTRAL) side GND or EARTH side GND at
the same time with a measuring apparatus (oscilloscope etc.). If
above note will not be kept, a fuse or any parts will be broken.
(6) If any repair has been made to the chassis, it is recommended that
the B1 setting should be checked or adjusted (See B1 POWER
SUPPLY check).
(7) Do not check high voltage by drawing an arc. Use a high voltage
meter or a high voltage probe with a VTVM. Discharge the picture
tube before attempting meter connection, by connecting a clip lead
to the ground frame and connecting the other end of the lead
through a 10kΩ2W resistor to the anode button.
(8) When service is required, observe the original lead dress. Extra
precaution should be given to assure correct lead dress in the high
voltage circuit area. Where a short circuit has occurred, those
components that indicate evidence of overheating should be
replaced. Always use the manufacturer's replacement
components.
(9) Isolation Check (Safety for Electrical Shock Hazard)
After re-assembling the product, always perform an isolation
check on the exposed metal parts of the cabinet (antenna
terminals, video/audio input and output terminals, Control knobs,
metal cabinet, screw heads, earphone jack, control shafts, etc.) to
be sure the product is safe to operate without danger of electrical
shock.
a) Dielectric Strength Test
The isolation between the AC primary circuit and all metal parts
exposed to the user, particularly any exposed metal part having a
return path to the chassis should withstand a voltage of 1100V AC
(r.m.s.) for a period of one second.
(. . . . Withstand a voltage of 1100V AC (r.m.s.) to an appliance rat-
ed up to 120V, and 3000V AC (r.m.s.) to an appliance rated 200V
or more, for a period of one second.) This method of test requires
a test equipment not generally found in the service trade.
b) Leakage Current Check
Plug the AC line cord directly into the AC outlet (do not use a line
isolation transformer during this check.). Using a "Leakage
Current Tester", measure the leakage current from each exposed
metal part of the cabinet, particularly any exposed metal part
having a return path to the chassis, to a known good earth ground
(water pipe, etc.). Any leakage current must not exceed 0.5mA AC
(r.m.s.).
However, in tropical area, this must notexceed 0.2mA AC (r.m.s.).
Alternate Check Method
Plug the AC line cord directly into the AC outlet (do not use a
line isolation transformer during this check.). Use an AC
voltmeter having 1000Ωper volt or more sensitivity in the
following manner. Connect a 1500Ω10W resistor paralleled by
a0.15µF AC-type capacitor between an exposed metal part and
a known good earth ground (water pipe, etc.). Measure the AC
voltage across the resistor with the AC voltmeter. Move the
resistor connection to each exposed metal part, particularly any
exposed metal part having a return path to the chassis, and
measure the AC voltage across the resistor. Now, reverse the
plug in the AC outlet and repeat each measurement. Any
voltage measured must not exceed 0.75V AC (r.m.s.). This
corresponds to 0.5mA AC (r.m.s.).
However, in tropical area, this must not exceed 0.3V AC
(r.m.s.). This corresponds to 0.2mA AC (r.m.s.).
(10) High voltage hold down circuit check.
After repair of the high voltage hold down circuit, this circuit shall
be checked to operate correctly.See item "How to check the high
voltage hold down circuit".

1.2 INSTALLATION
1.2.1 HEAT DISSIPATION
If the heat dissipation vent behind this unit is blocked, cooling
efficiency may deteriorate and temperature inside the unit will
rise. The temperature sensor that protects the unit will be
activated when internal temperature exceeds the pre-determined
level and power will be turned off automatically.Therefore,
please make sure pay attention not to block the heat dissipation
vent as well as the ventilation outlet behind the unit and ensure
that there is room for ventilation around it.
1.2.2 INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
Ensure that the minimal distance is maintained, as specified
below, between the unit with and the surrounding walls, as well
as the floor etc.Install the unit on stable flooring or stands.Take
precautionary measures to prevent the unit from tipping in order
to protect against accidents and earthquakes.
1.2.3 INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
To ensure safety in an emergency such as an earthquake, and
to prevent accidents, ensure that measures are taken to prevent
the TV dropping or falling over.
Use the supplied screws to firmly attach the supplied hooks
(OPTION) to the back of the TV, and use commercially available
cord to fix the TV to rigid components such as walls and columns.
1.2.4 NOTES ON HANDLING
(1) WHEN TAKING UNIT OUT OF A PACKING CASE
When taking the unit out of a packing case, do not grasp
the upper part of the unit. If you take the unit out while
grasping the upper part, the LCD PANEL may be damaged
because of a pressure. Instead of grasping the upper part,
put your hands on the lower backside or sides of the unit.

1.3 HANDLING LCD PANEL
1.3.1 PRECAUTIONS FOR TRANSPORTATION
When transporting the unit, pressure exerted on the internal LCD
panel due to improper handling (such as tossing and dropping)
may cause damages even when the unit is carefully packed. To
prevent accidents from occurring during transportation, pay
careful attention before delivery, such as through explaining the
handling instructions to transporters.
Ensure that the following requirements are met during
transportation, as the LCD panel of this unit is made of glass and
therefore fragile:
(1) USE A SPECIAL PACKING CASE FOR THE LCD PANEL
When transporting the LCD panel of the unit, use a special
packing case (packing materials). A special packing case
is used when a LCD panel is supplied as a service spare
part.
(2) ATTACH PROTECTION SHEET TO THE FRONT
Since the front (display part) of the panel is vulnerable,
attach the protection sheet to the front of the LCD panel
before transportation. Protection sheet is used when a LCD
panel is supplied as a service spare part.
(3) AVOID VIBRATIONS AND IMPACTS
The unit may be broken if it is toppled sideways even when
properly packed. Continuous vibration may shift the gap of
the panel, and the unit may not be able to display images
properly. Ensure that the unit is carried by at least 2
persons and pay careful attention not to exert any vibration
or impact on it.
(4) DO NOT PLACE EQUIPMENT HORIZONTALLY
Ensure that it is placed upright and not horizontally during
transportation and storage as the LCD panel is very
vulnerable to lateral impacts and may break. During
transportation, ensure that the unit is loaded along the
traveling direction of the vehicle, and avoid stacking them
on one another. For storage, ensure that they are stacked
in 2 layers or less even when placed upright.
1.3.2 OPTICAL FILTER (ON THE FRONT OF THE LCD PANEL)
(1) Avoid placing the unit under direct sunlight over a
prolonged period of time. This may cause the optical filter
to deteriorate in quality and color.
(2) Clean the filter surface by wiping it softly and lightly with a
soft and lightly fuzz cloth (such as outing flannel).
(3) Do not use solvents such as benzene or thinner to wipe the
filter surface. This may cause the filter to deteriorate in
quality or the coating on the surface to come off. When
cleaning the filter, usually use the neutral detergent diluted
with water. When cleaning the dirty filter, use water-diluted
ethanol.
(4) Since the filter surface is fragile, do not scratch or hit it with
hard materials. Be careful enough not to touch the front
surface, especially when taking the unit out of the packing
case or during transportation.
1.3.3 PRECAUTIONS FOR REPLACEMENT OF EXTERIOR
PARTS
Take note of the following when replacing exterior parts (REAR
COVER, FRONT PANEL, etc.):
(1) Do not exert pressure on the front of the LCD panel (filter
surface). It may cause irregular color.
(2) Pay careful attention not to scratch or stain the front of the
LCD panel (filter surface) with hands.
(3) When replacing exterior parts, the front (LCD panel) should
be placed facing downward. Place a mat, etc. underneath
to avoid causing scratches to the front (filter surface).

2.2 TECHNICAL INFORMATION
2.2.1 LCD PANEL
This unit uses the flat type panel LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) panel that occupies as little space as possible, instead of the
conventional CRT (Cathode Ray Tube), as a display unit.
2.2.1.1 STRUCTURE
The LCD panel of the unit is constructed with the metal chassis that surrounds the panel unit and supports the LCD panel part and
the backlight part to protect them.
The color filter glass and the TFT glass (thin film transistor) are inserted between the front polarizing filter and the rear polarizing filter.
Liquid crystals are inserted between the color filter glass and the TFT glass. Since the gap between the two glasses is only a few µm,
a spacer (bead) is inserted in the gap to retain the gap.
The backlight unit is placed behind the LCD panel. Since liquid crystals themselves do not emit light, the backlight as an external light
source emits light to the LCD panel from behind through the diffuser.
Circuit boards for controlling the LCD panel and the backlight are attached around the back part of the LCD panel unit.
Since the unit has the two polarizing filter that are at right angles to each other, the unit adopts "normally black" mode, where light
does not pass through the polarizing filter and the screen is black when no voltage is applied to the liquid crystals.
