SAFETY CHECK-OUT
(US model only)
After correcting the original service problem, perform the
following safety checks before releasing the set to the customer:
Check the antenna terminals, metal trim, “metallized” knobs, screws,
and all other exposed metal parts forAC leakage. Check leakage as
described below.
LEAKAGE
TheAC leakage from any exposed metal part to earth ground and
from all exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part having a
return to chassis, must not exceed 0.5 mA (500 microampers).
Leakage current can be measured by any one of three methods.
1. A commercial leakage tester, such as the Simpson 229 or RCA
WT-540A. Follow the manufacturers’instructions to use these
instruments.
2. A battery-operated AC milliammeter. The Data Precision 245
digital multimeter is suitable for this job.
3. Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of a
VOM or battery-operatedAC voltmeter. The “limit” indication
is 0.75 V, so analog meters must have an accurate low-voltage
scale. The Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63Trd are examples of
a passive VOM that is suitable. Nearly all battery operated
digital multimeters that have a 2V AC range are suitable. (See

This appliance is classified as a CLASS 1 LASER product. The
CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT MARKING is located on the rear
exterior.
Laser component in this product is capable
of emitting radiation exceeding the limit for
Class 1.
CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
otherthanthose specifiedhereinmay result in hazardous radiation
exposure.
Notes on chip component replacement
•Never reuse a disconnected chip component.
•Notice that the minus side of a tantalum capacitor may be
damaged by heat.
Flexible Circuit Board Repairing
•Keep the temperature of 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 HANDLING THE OPTICAL PICK-UP
BLOCK OR BASE UNIT
The laser diode in the optical pick-up block may suffer electrostatic
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 emission,
observe from more than 30 cm away from the objective lens.

[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. Press three buttons STOP , DISPLAY , and DISC 1
simultaneously.
2. The fluorescent indicator tube becomes blank instantaneously,
and the set is reset.
[Tuner Step Change] (Except for European and Middle Eastern
models)
• A step ofAM channels can be changed over between 9 kHz and
10 kHz.
Procedure:
1. Press POWER button to turn the set ON.
2. Selectthefunction “TUNER”, and press TUNER/BAND button
to select the BAND “AM”.
3. Press POWER button to turn the set OFF.
4. Press ENTER and POWER buttons simultaneously, and the
display of fluorescent indicator tube changes to “AM 9 k STEP”
or “AM 10 k STEP”, and thus the channel step is changed over.
[Function Change Mode]
• Select either VIDEO or MD of the external FUNCTION input.
Procedure:
1. Turn on the power.
2. Hold down MD(VIDEO) button then press POWER button,
and release POWER button first in order not in switch off the
set immediately.
The another function of the previous function is selected, the
input level is also changed and displayed “MD” or “VIDEO”.
[GCTest Mode]
• This mode is used to check the software version, FL tube, LED,
keyboard and VACS.
Procedure:
1. Press three buttons STOP , DISPLAY , and DISC 2
simultaneously.
2. LEDs and fluorescent indicator tube are all turned on.
3. When you want to enter the software version display mode,
press DISC 1 .The model number and destination are displayed.
4. Each time DISC 1 is pressed, the display changes stating from
MC version, GC version, CD version, CDDM, CDMA, CDMB,
BDA, BDB, ST version, TA version, TM version, TC version,
in this order, and returns to the model number and destination
display.
5. When DISC 3 is pressed while the version numbers are being
displayed except model number and destination, year, month
anddayofthe software creation appear.When DISC 3 ispressed
again, the display returns to the software version display. When
DISC 1 is pressed while year, month and day of the software
creationare being displayed, the year, month and day of creation
of the software versions are displayed in the same order of
version display.
6. Press DISC 2 button, and the key check mode is activated.
7. In the key check mode, the fluorescent indicator tube displays
“KOJOVO”. Each time a button is pressed, “KEY” value
increases.
However, once a button is pressed, _it is no longer taken into
account.
“VOL” value increases like 1, 2, 3...if rotatingVOLUME knob
in “+” direction, or it decreases like 0, 9, 8...if rotating in
“_”direction.
8. Also when DISC 3 is pressed after lighting of all LEDs and FL
tubes, value of VACS appears.
9. To exit from this mode, press three buttons in the same manner
as step 1, or disconnect the power cord.
[MCTest Mode]
• This mode is used to check operations of the respective sections
of Amplifier, Tuner, and Tape.
Procedure:
• To enter MC Test Mode
1. Press the POWER button t turn on the set.
2. Press the three buttons of STOP , DISPLAY and DISC 3
simultaneously.
3. Cursor segment flash on the FL display tube. The input
FUNCTION is changed to GAME.

Note :
1. CD Block is basically designed to operate without adjustment.
Therefore, check each item in order given.
2. Use LUV-P01 (4-999-032-01) 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 oscilloscope to TP (FE).
2. Connect between TP (FE) and TP (DVC ( 1.65 V) by lead
wire.
3. Turn Power switch on.
4. Load a disc (LUV-P01) and actuate the focus search. (In
consequence of open and close the disc tray, actuate the focus
search)
5. Confirm that the oscilloscope waveform (S-curve) is
symmetrical betweenA and B.And confirm peak to peak level
within 2 ±0.5 Vp-p.
6. After check, remove the lead wire connected in step 2.
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 oscilloscope to TP2 (RFDC) and TP1 (RFAC).
2. Turned Power switch on.
3. Load a disc (LUV-P01) and playback.
4. Confirmthatoscilloscope waveform is clear and check RF signal
level is correct or not.
