WARNING
All ICs and many other semi-conductors are
susceptible to electrostatic discharges (ESD).
Careless handling during repair ¢an reduce life
drastically. ;
When repairing, make sure that you are
connected with the same potential as the mass
of the set via a wrist wrap with resistance.
Keep components and iools also at this
potential.
CF) ATTENTION |
Tous les IC et beaucoup d'autres
semi-conducteurs sont sensibles aux
décharges statiques (ESD).
Leur longévité pourrait étre considérablement
6courtée par le fait qu’aucune précaution n’est
prise & leur manipulation.
Lors de réparations, s'assurer de bien &tre relié
au méme potentiel que la masse de |’appareil et
enfiler le bracelet serti d'une résistance de
sécurité.

emptindlich gegeniber elektrostatischen
Entladungen (ESD).
Unsorgfaltige Behandlung im Reparaturfall kan .
die Lebensdauer drastisch reduzieren.
Veranlassen Sie, dass Sie im Reparaturfall ber

CNL) WAARSCHUWING
Alle IC's en vele andere halfgetsiders zijn
gevoelig voor electrostatische ontladingen
(ESD).
Onzorgvuldig behandelen tijdens reparatie kan:
de jevensduur drastisch doen verminderen.
Zorg ervoor dat u tijdens reparatie via een
poisband met weerstand verbonden bent met
hetzelfde potentiaal als dé massa van het
apparaat.
Houd componenten en hulpmiddelen ook op
ditzelfde potentiaal.
C1) AwerTIMENTO
Tutti IC e parecchi semi-conduitari sono
sensibili alle scariche statiche (ESD).
La loro longevita potrebbe essere fortemente
ridatta in caso di non osservazione della pit
grande cauzione alla loro manipalazione.
Durante le riparazioni occorre quindi essere
collegate allo stesso potenziale che quello della
massa dell’apparecchio tramite un braccialetto
a resistenza.
Assicurarsi che i componenti e anche gli utensili
con quali si lavora siano anche a questa ©
Safety regulations require thai the set be restored to its original
condition and that parts which are identical with those specified,
be used.

very damp room, moisture may
condense on the lens of the CD unit
inside the system. Should this occur, the
CD player wilt not operate normally.
Leave the power on for about one hour
with no disc in the system until normal
playback is possible.
« Electrostatic discharge may cause
unexpected problems. See whether
these problems disappear if you unplug a
