SAFETY-RELATED COMPONENT WARNING!
COMPONENTS  IDENTIFIED   BY  MARK 0 OR   DOTTED  LINE  
WITH  MARK 0 ON  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  PUBLISHED  BY  SONY.
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 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.
SAFETY  CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the following 
safety check before releasing the set to the customer:
Check  the  antenna  terminals,  metal  trim,  “metallized”  knobs, 
screws,  and  all  other  exposed  metal  parts  for AC  leakage.  Check 
leakage as described below.
LEAKAGE  TEST
The AC 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 microamperes).
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-operated AC 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 Fig. A)
