SAFETY NOTICE

Many electrical and mechanical parts in LCD colortelevision have special safety-related characteristics.These characteristics are often not evident from visualinspection, nor can protection afforded by them benecessarily increased by using replacement componentsrated for higher voltage, wattage, etc.Replacement parts which have these special safetycharacteristics are identified in this manual; electricalcomponents having such features are identified by "

" and shaded areas in the Replacement Parts Listand Schematic Diagrams.For continued protection, replacement parts must beidentical to those used in the original circuit.The use of a substitute replacement parts which do nothave the same safety characteristics as the factoryrecommended replacement parts shown in this servicemanual, may create shock, fire or other hazards.

CAUTION:FOR CONTINUED PROTECTIONAGAINST A RISK OF FIREREPLACE ONLY WITH SAMETYPE FUSE.

F7003 (2A, 250V),F7801 (8A, 250V)

WARNING

1. For continued safety, no modification of any circuitshould be attempted.

2. Disconnect AC power before servicing.

BEFORE RETURNING THE RECEIVER(Fire & Shock Hazard)

Before returning the receiver to the user, performthe following safety checks:

1. Inspect all lead dress to make certain that leads arenot pinched, and check that hardware is not lodgedbetween the chassis and other metal parts in thereceiver.

2. Inspect all protective devices such as non-metalliccontrol knobs, insulation materials, cabinet backs,adjustment and compartment covers or shields,isolation resistor-capacitor networks, mechanicalinsulators, etc.

3. To be sure that no shock hazard exists, check forleakage current in the following manner.

Plug the AC cord directly into a 120 volt AC outlet. Using two clip leads, connect a 1.5k ohm, 10 watt

resistor paralleled by a 0.15F capacitor in serieswith all exposed metal cabinet parts and a knownearth ground, such as electrical conduit or electricalground connected to an earth ground.

Use an AC voltmeter having with 5000 ohm per volt,or higher, sensitivity or measure the AC voltage dropacross the resistor.

Connect the resistor connection to all exposed metalparts having a return to the chassis (antenna, metalcabinet, screw heads, knobs and control shafts,escutcheon, etc.) and measure the AC voltage dropacross the resistor.All checks must be repeated with the AC cord plugconnection reversed. (If necessary, a nonpolarizedadaptor plug must be used only for the purpose ofcompleting these checks.)Any reading of 0.75 Vrms (this corresponds to 0.5mA rms AC.) or more is excessive and indicates apotential shock hazard which must be correctedbefore returning the monitor to the owner.

IMPORTANT SERVICE SAFETY PRECAUTION Service work should be performed only by qualified service technicians who are thor-

oughly familiar with all safety checks and the servicing guidelines which follow:

AVIS POUR LA SECURITE

De nombreuses pices, lectriques et mcaniques,dans les tlviseur ACL prsentent des caractristiquesspciales relatives la scurit, qui ne sont souventpas videntes vue. Le degr de protection ne peutpas tre ncessairement augmente en utilisant despices de remplacement talonnes pour haute tension,puissance, etc.Les pices de remplacement qui prsentent cescaractristiques sont identifies dans ce manuel; lespices lectriques qui prsentent ces particularits sont

PRECAUTIONS A PRENDRE LORS DE LA REPARATION Ne peut effectuer la rparation qu' un technicien spcialis qui s'est parfaitement

accoutum toute vrification de scurit et aux conseils suivants.

identifies par la marque " " et hachures dans laliste des pices de remplacement et les diagrammesschmatiques.Pour assurer la protection, ces pices doivent treidentiques celles utilises dans le circuit d'origine.L'utilisation de pices qui n'ont pas les mmescaractristiques que les pices recommandes parl'usine, indiques dans ce manuel, peut provoquer deslectrocutions, incendies, radiations X ou autresaccidents.

AVERTISSEMENT

1. N'entreprendre aucune modification de tout circuit.C'est dangereux.

2. Dbrancher le rcepteur avant toute rparation.

VERIFICATIONS CONTRE L'INCEN-DIE ETLE CHOC ELECTRIQUE

Avant de rendre le rcepteur l'utilisateur, effectuerles vrifications suivantes.1. Inspecter tous les faisceaux de cbles pour s'assurer

que les fils ne soient pas pincs ou qu'un outil ne soitpas plac entre le chssis et les autres picesmtalliques du rcepteur.

2. Inspecter tous les dispositifs de protection comme lesboutons de commande non-mtalliques, les isolants,le dos du coffret, les couvercles ou blindages de rglageet de compartiment, les rseaux de rsistance-capacit, les isolateurs mcaniques, etc.

3. S'assurer qu'il n'y ait pas de danger d'lectrocution envrifiant la fuite de courant, de la facon suivante:

Brancher le cordon d'alimentation directem-ent uneprise de courant de 120V. (Ne pas utiliser detransformateur d'isolation pour cet essai).

A l'aide de deux fils pinces, brancher une rsistancede 1.5 k 10 watts en parallle avec un condensateur

de 0.15F en srie avec toutes les pices mtalliquesexposes du coffret et une terre connue comme uneconduite lectrique ou une prise de terre branche la terre.

Utiliser un voltmtre CA d'une sensibilit d'au moins5000/V pour mesurer la chute de tension en traversde la rsistance.

Toucher avec la sonde d'essai les pices mtalliquesexposes qui prsentent une voie de retour au chssis(antenne, coffret mtallique, tte des vis, arbres decommande et des boutons, cusson, etc.) et mesurerla chute de tension CA en-travers de la rsistance.Toutes les vrifications doivent tre refaites aprs avoirinvers la fiche du cordon d'alimentation. (Sincessaire, une prise d'adpatation non polarise peuttre utilise dans le but de terminer ces vrifications.)Tous les courants mesurs ne doivent pas dpasser0.5 mA.Dans le cas contraire, il y a une possibilit de choclectrique qui doit tre supprime avant de rendre lercepteur au client.

Precautions for using lead-free solder1 Employing lead-free solder

"PWBs" of this model employs lead-free solder. The LF symbol indicates lead-free solder, and is attached on thePWBs and service manuals. The alphabetical character following LF shows the type of lead-free solder.Example:

2 Using lead-free wire solderWhen fixing the PWB soldered with the lead-free solder, apply lead-free wire solder. Repairing with conventionallead wire solder may cause damage or accident due to cracks.As the melting point of lead-free solder (Sn-Ag-Cu) is higher than the lead wire solder by 40C, we recommendyou to use a dedicated soldering bit, if you are not familiar with how to obtain lead-free wire solder or soldering bit,contact our service station or service branch in your area.

3 SolderingAs the melting point of lead-free solder (Sn-Ag-Cu) is about 220C which is higher than the conventional leadsolder by 40C, and as it has poor solder wettability, you may be apt to keep the soldering bit in contact with thePWB for extended period of time. However, Since the land may be peeled off or the maximum heat-resistancetemperature of parts may be exceeded, remove the bit from the PWB as soon as you confirm the steady solderingcondition.Lead-free solder contains more tin, and the end of the soldering bit may be easily corroded. Make sure to turn onand off the power of the bit as required.If a different type of solder stays on the tip of the soldering bit, it is alloyed with lead-free solder. Clean the bit afterevery use of it.When the tip of the soldering bit is blackened during use, file it with steel wool or fine sandpaper.

Be careful when replacing parts with polarity indication on the PWB silk.

Indicates lead-free solder of tin, silver and copper.
