CAUTION
Lead Free Soldered Boards
The circuit boards used in these models have been processed using
Lead Free Solder. The boards are identified by the LF logo located
close to the board designation e.g. Fl, H1 etc [ see examples }. The
servicing of these boards requires special precautions to be taken as
outlined below.
example 1
example 2
It is strongly recommended to use Lead Free Solder material in order to guarantee optimal quality of new solder joints. Lead Free Solder is
available under the following part numbers :
Partnumber:
7-640-005-19
Diameter
0.3mm
7-640-005-20

0.5mm
7-640-005-24
7-640-005-25
7-640-005-26
Due to the higher melting point of Lead Free Solder the soldering iron tip temperature needs to be set to 370 degrees centigrade. This requires
soldering equipment capable of accurate temperature control coupled with a good heat recovery characteristics.
For more information on the use of Lead Free Solder, please refer to Attp://www.sony-training.com

WARNING (UK Models only)
The flexible mains lead is supplied connected to a B.S. 1363 fused
plug having a fuse of 13 AMP rating. Should the fuse need to be
replaced, use a L3AMP FUSE approved by ASTA to BS 1362, ie one
that carries the mark.
IF THE PLUG SUPPLIED WITH THIS APPLIANCE IS NOT SUIT-
ABLE FOR THE OUTLET SOCKETS IN YOUR HOME, IT SHOULD
BE CUT OFF AND AN APPROPRIATE PLUG FITTED. THE PLUG
SEVERED FROM THE MAINS LEAD MUST BE DESTROYED AS A
PLUG WITH BARED WIRES IS DANGEROUS IF ENGAGED IN A
LIVE SOCKET.
When an alternative type of plug is used, it should be fitted with a
13 AMP FUSE, otherwise the circuit should be protected by a
13AMP FUSE at the distribution board.
WAX
RM-EA002/RM-ED002
How to replace the fuse.

WAX SELF DIAGNOSTIC SOFTWARE
The identification of errors within the WAX chassis is triggered in one of two ways :- 1: Busy or 2: Device failure to respond to IIC. In the
event of one of these situations arising the software will first try to release the bus if busy (Failure to do so will report with a continuous
flashing LED) and then communicate with each device in turn to establish if a device is faulty. If a device is found to be faulty the relevant
device number will be displayed through the LED (Series of flashes which must be counted).
