SERVICE NOTE
CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of proce-
dures other than those specified herein may result in haz-
ardous radiation exposure.
Notes on Chip Component Replacement
•Never reuse a disconnected chip component.
•Notice that the minus side of a tantalum capacitor may be dam-
aged by heat.
NOTES ON HANDLINGTHEOPTICAL PICK-UP BLOCK OR
BASE UNIT
The laser diode in the optical pick-up block may suffer electrostatic
breakdown because of the potential difference generated by the
charged electrostatic load, etc. on clothing and the human body.
During repair, pay attention to electrostatic breakdown and also use
the procedure in the printed matter which is included in the repair
parts.
The flexible board is easily damaged and should be handled with
care.
NOTES ON LASER DIODE EMISSION CHECK
The laser beam on this model is concentrated so as to be focused on
the disc reflective surface by the objective lens in the optical pick-up
block. Therefore, when checking the laser diode emission, observe
from more than 30 cm away from the objective lens.
NOTES ON PICK-UP FLEXIBLE BOARD
The pick-up flexible board in this set is secured to the optical pick-up
with an adhesive tape. Once the tape is removed, an adhering force
becomes weak, and it cannot be reused.
Therefore, if the optical pick-up is replaced, replace also the pick-up
flexible board with a new one.

Procedure:
1. Adjust IFT4 on TU01 so that the readingonthe digital voltmeter
becomes in 0 ± 30 mV.
2. Output an Fcenter 10 dB signal output from FM RF signal
generator so that the LINE OUT REAR jack is –20 dBs.
3. Change the FM RF signal generator frequency and check the
deviation of the frequency on + side and – side when the LINE
OUT REAR jack drops 3 dB. (Both + side and – side is approx.
50 kHz.)
4. Re-adjust IFT4 on TU01 when the difference deviation of the
frequency does more than 10 kHz.

CD SECTION
Note:
1. CD Block basically constructed to operate without adjustment.
Therefore, check each item in order given.
2. UseYEDS-18 disc (3-702-101-01) unless otherwise indicated.
3. Use the oscilloscope with more than 10 MΩimpedance.
4. Clean an objective lens by an applicator with neutral detergent
when the signal level is low than specified valuewith the following
checks.
Focus Bias Adjustment
Setting: This adjustment is performed with the set placed
horizontally.
Focus Gain Adjustment (Coarse adjustment)
Thisadjustmentis notrequired unlessthe followingparts are replaced:
• Optical pick-up
•RV4
Procedure:
1. Set RV4 to the standard position. (mechanical center)
2. Check whether operation noise (while noise type) caused by
the 2-axis device (lens section of the optical pick-up) is
abnormally loud.
If the operation noise is too loud, turn RV4 slightly counter-
clockwise.
• If the gain is too low:
Focus does not function and no music is selected.
• If the gain is too high:
Noise caused by scratches and dust is heard and the operation
becomes unstable.
Adjustment Location: servo board
Adjustment Location: servo board (component side)
Procedure:
1. Connect an oscilloscope between TP (RF) and TP (RF. GND)
on the SERVO board.
2. Connect the power supply.
3. Push the RESET button (S881) on the DISPLAY board.
4. Insert the disc (YEDS-18) and playback.
5. Adjust RV1 so thatthe oscilloscope waveform is clear andcheck
RF signal level is correct or not.
Note: Clear RF signal waveform means that the sharp “≈” can be
clearly distinguished at the center of the waveform.
• When observing the eye pattern, set the oscilloscope toAC range
and raise the vertical sensitivity so that it may be easily seen.
