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.
Flexible Circuit Board Repairing
•Keep the temperature of the soldering iron around 270 ˚C dur-
ing 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.
CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
other than those specified herein may result in hazardous ra-
diation exposure.
SAFETY-RELATED COMPONENT WARNING!!
COMPONENTS IDENTIFIED BY MARK 0OR DOTTED
LINE WITH MARK 0ON THE SCHEMATIC DIAGRAMS
AND IN THE PARTS LIST ARE CRITICAL TO SAFE
OPERATION. REPLACE THESE COMPONENTS WITH
SONY PARTS WHOSE PART NUMBERS APPEAR AS
SHOWN IN THIS MANUAL OR IN SUPPLEMENTS PUB-
LISHED BY SONY.
The following caution label is located inside the unit.
This appliance is classified as
a CLASS 1 LASER product.
The CLASS 1 LASER
PRODUCT MARKING is
located on the rear exterior.
UNLEADED SOLDER
Boards requiring use of unleaded solder are printed with the lead-
free mark (LF) indicating the solder contains no lead.
(Caution: Some printed circuit boards may not come printed with
the lead free mark due to their particular size)
: LEAD FREE MARK
Unleaded solder has the following characteristics.
•Unleaded solder melts at a temperature about 40 ˚C higher than
ordinary solder.
Ordinary soldering irons can be used but the iron tip has to be
applied to the solder joint for a slightly longer time.
Soldering irons using a temperature regulator should be set to
about 350 ˚C.
Caution: The printed pattern (copper foil) may peel away if the
heated tip is applied for too long, so be careful!
•Strong viscosity
Unleaded solder is more viscou-s (sticky, less prone to flow)
than ordinary solder so use caution not to let solder bridges oc-
cur such as on IC pins, etc.
•Usable with ordinary solder
It is best to use only unleaded solder but unleaded solder may
also be added to ordinary solder.

SERVICING NOTES
NOTES ON HANDLING THE OPTICAL PICK-UP
BLOCK OR BASE UNIT
The laser diode in the optical pick-up block may suffer electro-
static break-down because of the potential difference generated
by the charged electrostatic load, etc. on clothing and the human
body.
During repair, pay attention to electrostatic break-down 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 emis-
sion, observe from more than 30 cm away from the objective lens.
LASER DIODE AND FOCUS SEARCH OPERATION
CHECK
Carry out the “S curve check” in “CD section adjustment” and
check that the S curve waveforms is output three times.

TEST MODE
MC COLD RESET
•The cold reset clears all data including preset data stored in the
RAM to initial conditions. Execute this mode when returning
the set to the customer.
Procedure:
1. In the standby status, while pressing the xbutton, press the
[POWER] button.
2. The set is reset, then becomes standby status.
GC TEST MODE
Procedure:
1. Press the [POWER] button to turn the power on.
2. While pressing the xbutton, press the [POWER] button for
5 seconds.
3. It change displays in order of model type, version and suffix at
2 seconds interval, then the display is back to normal status.
AMP TEST MODE
Procedure:
1. In the status where AC plug is disconnected, while pressing
the [VIDEO/AUX] button, connect the AC plug to turn the
power on. Then enter the AMP test mode and display “AMP
TEST”.
2. If turn the [VOLUME] knob clockwise, it displays “VOLUME
MAX”, and if turn the knob counterclockwise, it displays
“VOLUME 0”.
3. If the [TREBLE] and [BASS] knobs are turned clockwise or
counterclockwise, it change displays in order of “EQ MAX”,
“EQ MIN” and “EQ FLAT”.
4. To release from this mode, disconnect the AC plug and turn
the power off.
DISC TRAY LOCK
Procedure:
1. Press the [POWER] button to turn the power on.
2. While pressing the xbutton, press the [ OPEN/CLOSE]
button for 5 seconds.
3. The message “LOCKED” is displayed and the tray is locked.
(Even if exiting from this mode, the tray is still locked)
4. To release this lock, while pressing the xbutton, press the
[ OPEN/CLOSE] button for 5 again.
5. The message “UNLOCKED” is displayed and the tray is un-
locked.
CD REPEAT 5 LIMIT CANCEL MODE
•Number of repeat for CD playback is 5 times when the repeat
mode is “REPEAT”. This mode enables CD to repeat playback
for limitless times.
Procedure:
1. Press the [POWER] button to turn the power on.
2. In the repeat on status, while pressing the xbutton, press the
[CD] button to enter the CD repeat 5 limit cancel mode and
repeat mark blinks on the fluorescent indicator tube.

Note:
1. CDBlock is basically designed to operate without adjustment.Therefore,
check each item in order given.
2. UseYEDS-18 (3-702-101-01) unless otherwise indicated.
3. Use an oscilloscope with more than 10MΩimpedance.
4. Clean the object lens by an applicator with neutral detergent when the
signal level is low than specified value with the following checks.
S-CURVE CHECK
Procedure :
1. Connect an oscilloscope to TP (FE) and TP (VC).
2. Turn the power on.
3. Load a disc (YEDS-18) and actuate the focus search. (In
consequence of open and close the disc tray, actuate the focus
search)
4. Confirm that the oscilloscope waveform (S-curve) is
symmetrical betweenA and B.And confirm peak to peak level
within 3 ±0.5 Vp-p.
Note: •Try to measure several times to make sure than the ratio
of A : B or B : A is more than 10 : 7.
•Take sweep time as long as possible and light up the
brightness to obtain best waveform.
RF LEVEL CHECK
Procedure :
1. Connect an oscilloscope to TP (RF) and TP (VC).
2. Turn the power on.
3. Load a disc (YEDS-18) and playback.
4. Confirm that oscilloscope waveform is clear and check if RF
signal level is correct or not.

•This mode can run the CD sled motor freely. Use this mode, for
instance, when cleaning the pickup.
Procedure:
1. In the status where AC plug is disconnected, while pressing
the [CD] button, connect theAC plug to turn the power on.
2. When enter this mode, it displays “CD TEST” and few sec-
onds later, all segments turn on of the fluorescent indicator
tube.
