or that hardware is not lodged between the chassis and other
metal parts in the audio product.
2.Inspectallprotectivedevicessuchasinsulatingmaterials,cabinet,
terminal board, adjustment and compartment covers or shields,
mechanical insulators etc.
3. To be sure that no shock hazard exists, check for leakage current
in the following manner.
* Plug the AC line cord directly into a 120 volt AC outlet.
* Usingtwoclipleads,connecta1.5kohm,10wattresistorparalleled
by a 0.15µF capacitor in series with all exposed metal cabinet
parts and a known earth ground, such as conduit or electrical
ground connected to earth ground.
* Use a VTVM or VOM with 1000 ohm per volt, or higher, sensitivity
tomeasuretheACvoltagedropacrosstheresistor(Seediagram).
* Connect the resistor connection to all exposed metal parts having
areturnpathtothechassis(antenna,metalcabinet,screwheads,
knobs and control shafts, escutcheon, etc.) and measure the AC
voltage drop across the resistor.
All check must be repeated with the AC line cord plug connection
reversed.
Any reading of 0.3 volt RMS (this corresponds to 0.2 milliamp. AC.)
or more is excessive and indicates a potential shock hazard which
must be corrected before returning the audio product to the owner.

MINIDISC SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
Even if the maximum recording time of a MiniDisc has not been reached, "TOC FULL" may be displayed. Even if the maximum recording time of a MiniDisc has not been reached, "DISC FULL" may be displayed.
Even if several short tracks are erased, the remaining recording time may not show an increase. Two tracks may not be combined in editing. The total of the recorded time and time remaining on a disc may not add up to the maximum possible recording time.
If recorded tracks are fast reversed or fast forwarded, the sound may skip.
In the MD system, the delimiter of the recording area on an MD is programmed in a TOC. If partial erasing, recording and editing are repeated several times, TOC information will fill up, even though the number of tracks has not reached the limit (255 tracks), and further recording will be impossible. (If you use the all erase function, this MD can be used from the beginning.) If there is any flaw on the MiniDisc, that part is automatically excluded from the space available for recording. Therefore, the recording time becomes shorter. When the remaining recording time of a disc is displayed, short tracks less than 12 seconds long may not be included in the total. For MiniDiscs on which repeated recording and editing operations were per- formed, the COMBINE function may not work. A track recorded from a CD (digital recording) and a track recorded from a radio or other equipment (analog recording) cannot be combined. A cluster (about 2 seconds) is normally the minimum unit of recording. So, even if a track is less than 2 seconds long, it will use about 2 seconds of space on the disc. Therefore, the time actually available for recording may be less than the remaining time displayed. If there are scratches on discs, those sections will be automatically avoided (no recording will be placed in those sections). Therefore, the recording time will be reduced. An MD which has been recorded or edited repeatedly may skip during fast reverse or fast forward.
