SERVICING NOTES
Flexible Circuit Board Repairing
•Keep the temperature the soldering iron around 270° C during
repairing.
•Do not touch the soldering iron on the same conductor of the
circuit board (within 3 times).
•Be careful not to apply force on the conductor when soldering or
unsoldering.
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.

MECHANICAL ADJUSTMENTS
1. Clean the following parts with a denatured-alcohol-moistened
swab: playback head pinch roller
rubber belt capstan
idlers
2. Demagnetize the playback head with a head demagnetizer.
3. Do not use a magnetized screwdriver for the adjustments.
4. After the adjustments, apply suitable locking compound to the
parts adjusted.
5. The adjustments should be performed with the power supply
voltage unless otherwise noted.

TEST MODE
This set have the test mode function. In the test mode, FM Auto
Scan/Stop Level andAM (MW) Auto Scan/Stop Level adjustments
can be performed easier than it in ordinary procedure.
<Set the Test Mode>
1. Set the “power select” switch (S801) is “A” position.
2. Turn ON the regulated power supply. (All LEDs on the set lights
up, and the clock is displayed.)
Note:Press the OFF button, if the clock is not displayed.
3. Push the preset 4 button.
4. Push the preset 5 button.
5. Press the preset 1 button for more than two seconds.
6. Then the display indicates all lights, the test mode is set.
<Release the Test mode>
1. Push the OFF button.
2. Set the “power select” switch (S801) is “original” position.
