1PoweringUpoftheMainUnit
1.1Checking Playerwith ActiveSubwoofer
1. Thisunituses theactive subwoofertosupplythepowerofthe component, andthe activesubwoofershouldbe
connected tothe componenttocheck operationalconditions ofthecomponent.
2. ConnectbothAC powersupplycords toenjoyall the features ofthissystem.
Thisspeakersand tunerwill notworkunlessyou connectthesubwoofertoahouseholdAC outlet.
1.2Using of PowerJig
1. If the activesubwooferisnotavailableduring torepairofthe unit, usethe following equipment.
Jigproductnumber
RFKZ0182 (110V,127V,220V,230V-240Vforforoverseasdomesticuse)

2BeforeRepairandAdjustment
(Using Active SubwooferUnit)
Disconnect ACpower, discharge PowerSupplyCapacitorsC546 ,C547,C548&C549 (fromactivesubwooferunit)
through a10 ,1Wresistortoground.
DO NOTSHORT-CIRCUITDIRECTLY(withascrewdriverblade, forinstance),asthismaydestroy solidstatedevices.
Afterrepairsarecompleted,restorepowergraduallyusing avariac,toavoidovercurrent.
Currentconsumption atAC 120V,60HzinNO SIGNALmode shouldbe ~1000mA[FromActive Subwoofer].

3ProtectionCircuitry
The protectioncircuitrymay have operatedif eitherofthe followingconditions isnoticed:
lNosound isheardwhen thepower isswitched ON.
lSound stops during aperformance.
The function ofthiscircuitryistopreventcircuitrydamage if,forexample,the positive and negative speakerconnection
wires are
shorted, orif speakersystemswithan impedance less thanthe indicatedratedimpedanceofthisunit areused.
If thisoccurs,followtheprocedureoutlinesbelow:
1. Switch OFFthe power.
2. Determinethe cause ofthe problemand correctit.
3. Switch ONthe poweronceagain.
Note:
Whenthe protection circuitryfunctions,the unit willnotoperateunless the powerisfirst switchedOFF and then ON
again.

4SafetyPrecautions
4.1General Guidelines
1. Whenservicing,observe the original leaddress.If ashortcircuit isfound,replace all partswhich have been
overheated ordamaged by theshort circuit.
2. Afterservicing,seetoitthatallthe protective devicessuch as insulation barriers,insulation papersshields are
properlyinstalled.
3. Afterservicing,make the following leakagecurrentchecks topreventthecustomerfrombeing exposed toshock
hazards.
(This“SafetyPrecaution”isapplied onlyinU.S.A.)
1. Beforeservicing,unplug thepowercordtopreventan electricshock.
2. Whenreplacing parts,useonlymanufacturer’srecommendedcomponentsforsafety.
3. Check thecondition ofthe powercord.Replaceifwearordamage isevident.
4. Afterservicing,be suretorestorethelead dress,insulation barriers, insulation papers,shields, etc.
5. Beforereturningthe serviced equipmenttothe customer,be suretomakethe following insulation resistancetest
topreventthe customerfrombeing exposedtoashock hazard.
4.1.1LeakageCurrentColdCheck
1. Unplugthe AC cordand connectajumperbetween the twoprongson the plug.
2. Measurethe resistancevalue,withan ohmmeter,between thejumpered AC plug and each exposed metallic
cabinetpart on the equipmentsuchasscrewheads,connectors,controlshafts,etc.When the exposedmetallic
parthas areturnpathtothechassis,the readingshouldbebetween1M and 5.2M .
Whenthe exposed metaldoes nothaveareturnpathtothe chassis,the reading mustbe .
Fig.1
4.1.2LeakageCurrentHotCheck(See Figure1)
1. Plug the AC corddirectlyintothe AC outlet.Donotusean isolation transformerforthischeck.
2. Connecta1.5k ,10wattsresistor, inparallel witha0.15µFcapacitor,between eachexposed metallicpartonthe
setand agood earthground suchasawaterpipe,as showninFigure1.
3. UseanAC voltmeter,with1000 ohms/voltormoresensitivity,tomeasurethepotentialacrossthe resistor.
4. Check each exposed metallicpart,and measurethe voltage ateachpoint.
5. Reversethe AC plug inthe AC outletandrepeat each ofthe above measurements.
6. The potentialat any pointshouldnotexceed0.75 voltsRMS.Aleakage currenttester (Simpson Model229or
equivalent)maybeused tomake thehot checks,leakagecurrentmustnotexceed 1/2milliamp.Incasea
measurementisoutofthe limitsspecified,thereisapossibilityof ashock hazard,and the equipmentshouldbe
repaired and rechecked beforeit isreturned tothecustomer.
4.1.3Cautionforfuse replacement

5HandlingtheLead-free Solder
5.1About leadfreesolder(PbF)
Distinction of PbF P.C.B.:
P.C.B.s(manufactured)usinglead free solderwillhave aPbF stampon the P.C.B.
Caution:
lPbfreesolderhas ahighermelting pointthanstandardsolder;Typicallythemelting pointis50 - 70°F(30 -40°C)
higher.Pleaseuseahigh temperaturesoldering iron.Incase ofsoldering iron withtemperaturecontrol, please set
it to700 ± 20°F(370 ±10°C).
lPbfreesolderwill tend tosplashwhenheated too high(about1100°F/600°C).
lWhensoldering orunsoldering,pleasecompletelyremove allofthe solderonthe pinsorsolderarea,andbe sure
toheatthe solderingpointswiththePbfree solderuntilitmeltsenough.

6PreventionofElectroStatic
Discharge(ESD)to
ElectrostaticallySensitive (ES)
Devices
Somesemiconductor(solidstate)devices canbe damagedeasilyby electricity.Such componentscommonlyarecalled
ElectrostaticallySensitive (ES) Devices.Examplesof typicalES devices areintegrated circuitsand somefield-effect
transistorsandsemiconductor “chip”components.Thefollowing techniquesshouldbeused tohelpreducethe
incidence ofcomponentdamage caused by electrostaticdischarge (ESD).
1. Immediatelybeforehandling anysemiconductorcomponentorsemiconductor-equiped assembly,drainoffany
ESD on yourbody by touching aknownearthground.Alternatively,obtainandwear acommerciallyavailable
dischargingESD wriststrap,which shouldbe removed forpotentialshock reasons priortoapplying powertothe
unit undertest.
2. Afterremovinganelectrical assemblyequiped withES devices,placethe assemblyon aconductive surface such
asaluminiumfoil,topreventelectrostaticcharge buildup orexposureoftheassembly.
3. Useonlyagrounded-tipsoldering iron tosolderorunsolderES devices.
4. Useonlyan anti-staticsolderremoverdevice.Somesolderremovaldevices notclassifiedas“anti-static(ESD
protected)”can generateelectricalcharge todamage ES devices.
5. Donot use freon-propelled chemicals.These can generateelectricalcharges sufficient todamage ES devices.
6. Donot removeareplacementES device fromitsprotective packageuntilimmediatelybeforeyou arereadyto
install it. (MostreplacementES devices arepackaged withleads electricallyshorted togetherby conductivefoam,
aluminiumfoilorcomparableconductive material).
7. Immediatelybeforeremoving the protective materialfromtheleadsofareplacementES device,touch the
protective material tothe chassisorcircuitassemblyintowhich the device willbe installed.
Caution
Besureno powerisappliedtothe chassisorcircuit,andobserveall othersafetyprecautions.
8. Minimizebodymotions when handling unpackaged replacementES devices.(Otherwise harmlessmotionsuch as
the brushing togetherofyourclothesfabricorthe lifting ofyourfootfromacarpeted floor can generatestatic
electricity(ESD)sufficienttodamageanES device).
