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 visual inspection
nor can the protection afforded by 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) Don't short between the LIVE side ground and
ISOLATED (NEUTRAL) side ground or EARTH side
ground when repairing.
Some model's power circuit is partly different in the GND.
The difference of the GND is shown by the LIVE : ( ) side
GND, the ISOLATED (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.
(5) 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.
(6) Isolation Check (Safety for Electrical Shock Hazard)
After re-assembling the product, always perform an isola-
tion check on the exposed metal parts of the cabinet (an-
tenna 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 3000V AC (r.m.s.) for a period of one second. (.
. . . Withstand a voltage of 1100V AC (r.m.s.) to an appli-
ance rated up to 120V, and 3000V AC (r.m.s.) to an appli-
ance 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 leak-
age current must not exceed 0.5mA AC (r.m.s.).
However, in tropical area, this must not exceed 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 1500Ω
10W resistor paralleled by a 0.15µF 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
0.7mA AC (r.m.s.).
However, in tropical area, this must not exceed 0.35V
AC (r.m.s.). This corresponds to 0.3mA AC (r.m.s.).

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 NOTES ON HANDLING
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.
1.2.3 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.
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.

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 COLOUR.
(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 COLOUR.
(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).

5.NOTE FOR REPAIRING SERVICE
This model's power circuit is partly different in the GND. The
difference of the GND is shown by the LIVE : ( ) side GND and the
ISOLATED(NEUTRAL): ( ) side GND. Therefore, care must be
taken for the following points.
(1)Do not touch the LIVE side GND or the LIVE side GND and the
ISOLATED(NEUTRAL)side GND simultaneously. if the above
caution is not respected, an electric shock may be caused.
Therefore, make sure that the power cord is surely removed from
the receptacle when, for example, the chassis is pulled out.
(2)Do not short between the LIVE side GND and ISOLATED(NEUTRAL)
side GND or never measure with a measuring apparatus measure
with a measuring apparatus ( oscilloscope, etc.) the LIVE side GND
and ISOLATED(NEUTRAL)side GND at the same time.
If the above precaution is not respected, a fuse or any parts will be broken.
