Chapter 1: Precautions
Follow these safety, servicing and ESD precautions to prevent damage and protect against potential hazards such as electrical shock and X-rays.
1-1 Safety Precautions
- Be sure that all of the built-in protective devices are replaced.
- When reinstalling the chassis and its assemblies, be sure to restore all protective devices, including control knobs and compartment covers.
- Make sure that there are no cabinet openings through which people--particularly children--might insert fingers and contact dangerous voltages. Such openings include the spacing between the picture tube and the cabinet mask, excessively wide cabinet ventilation slots, and improperly fitted back covers.
- Design Alteration Warning: Never alter or add to the mechanical or electrical design of the unit. Example: Do not add auxiliary audio or video connectors. Such alterations might create a safety hazard. Also, any design changes or additions will void the manufacturer's warranty.
- Leakage Current Hot Check (Figure 1-1): Warning: Do not use an isolation transformer during this test. Use a leakage-current tester or a metering system that complies with American National Standards Institute (ANSI C101.1, Leakage Current for Appliances), and Underwriters Laboratories (UL Publication UL1410, 59.7). With the unit completely reassembled, plug the AC line cord directly into a 120V AC outlet. With the unit's AC switch first in the ON position and then OFF, measure the current between a known earth ground (metal water pipe, etc.) and all exposed metal parts. Examples: Handle brackets, metal cabinets, screwheads and control shafts. The current measured should not exceed 0.5 milliamp. Reverse the power-plug prongs in the AC outlet and repeat.
Figure 1-1 AC Leakage Test: Depicts a test setup with a 'Device Under Test' connected via a '2-Wire Cord' to a 'Leakage Current Tester'. The tester is connected to 'Earth Ground'. The test involves checking all exposed metal surfaces, including with the plug reversed. The reading should not be above 0.5mA.
- Insulation Resistance Cold Check: (1) With the unit's AC plug disconnected from the AC source, connect an electrical jumper across the two AC prongs. (2) Set the power switch to ON. (3) Measure the resistance between the shorted AC plug and any exposed metallic parts. Example: Screwheads, antenna, control shafts or handle brackets. If any of the exposed metallic parts has a return path to the chassis, the measured resistance should be between 1 and 5.2 megohms. If there is no return path, the measured resistance should be "infinite." If the resistance is outside these limits, a shock hazard might exist. See Figure 1-2
Figure 1-2 Insulation Resistance Test: Shows an 'Antenna Terminal' and an 'Exposed Metal Part' connected to an 'Ohmmeter' to measure resistance.
1-1 Safety Precautions (Continued)
- Components, parts and wiring that appear to have overheated or that are otherwise damaged should be replaced with parts that meet the original specifications. Always determine the cause of damage or overheating, and correct any potential hazards.
- Observe the original lead dress, especially near the following areas: Antenna wiring, sharp edges, and especially the AC and high voltage power supplies. Always inspect for pinched, out-of-place, or frayed wiring. Do not change the spacing between components and the printed circuit board. Check the AC power cord for damage. Make sure that no wires or components touch thermally hot parts.
- Product Safety Notice: Some electrical and mechanical parts have special safety-related characteristics which might not be obvious from visual inspection. These safety features and the protection they give might be lost if the replacement component differs from the original--even if the replacement is rated for higher voltage, wattage, etc.
- Components that are critical for safety are indicated in the circuit diagram by shading, [symbol for safety critical component], or [symbol for safety critical component]. Use replacement components that have the same ratings, especially for flame resistance and dielectric strength specifications. A replacement part that does not have the same safety characteristics as the original might create shock, fire or other hazards.
1-2 Servicing Precautions
Warning1: First read the "Safety Precautions" section of this manual. If some unforeseen circumstance creates a conflict between the servicing and safety precautions, always follow the safety precautions.
- Servicing precautions are printed on the cabinet. Follow them.
- Always unplug the unit's AC power cord from the AC power source before attempting to: (a) Remove or reinstall any component or assembly, (b) Disconnect an electrical plug or connector, (c) Connect a test component in parallel with an electrolytic capacitor.
- Some components are raised above the printed circuit board for safety. An insulation tube or tape is sometimes used. The internal wiring may be clamped to prevent contact with thermally hot components. Reinstall all such elements to their original position.
- After servicing, always check that the screws, components and wiring have been correctly reinstalled. Make sure that the portion around the serviced part has not been damaged.
- Check the insulation between the blades of the AC plug and accessible conductive parts (examples: metal panels, input terminals and earphone jacks).
- Insulation Checking Procedure: Disconnect the power cord from the AC source and turn the power switch ON. Connect an insulation resistance meter (500V) to the blades of the AC plug. The insulation resistance between each blade of the AC plug and accessible conductive parts (see above) should be greater than 1 megohm.
- Never defeat any of the B+ voltage interlocks. Do not apply AC power to the unit (or any of its assemblies) unless all solid-state heat sinks are correctly installed.
- Always connect a test instrument's ground lead to the instrument chassis ground before connecting the positive lead; always remove the instrument's ground lead last.
1-3 Precautions for Electrostatically Sensitive Devices (ESDs)
- Some semiconductor ("solid state") devices are easily damaged by static electricity. Such components are called Electrostatically Sensitive Devices (ESDs). Examples include integrated circuits and some field-effect transistors. The following techniques will reduce the occurrence of component damage caused by static electricity.
- Immediately before handling any semiconductor components or assemblies, drain the electrostatic charge from your body by touching a known earth ground. Alternatively, wear a discharging wrist-strap device. (Be sure to remove it prior to applying power--this is an electric shock precaution.)
- After removing an ESD-equipped assembly, place it on a conductive surface such as aluminum foil to prevent accumulation of electrostatic charge.
- Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can generate electrical charges that damage ESDs.
- Use only a grounded-tip soldering iron when soldering or unsoldering ESDs.
- Use only an anti-static solder removal device. Many solder removal devices are not rated as "anti-static" (these can accumulate sufficient electrical charge to damage ESDs).
- Do not remove a replacement ESD from its protective package until you are ready to install it. Most replacement ESDs are packaged with leads that are electrically shorted together by conductive foam, aluminum foil or other conductive materials.
- Immediately before removing the protective material from the leads of a replacement ESD, touch the protective material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will be installed.
- Minimize body motions when handing unpackaged replacement ESDs. Motions such as brushing clothes together, or lifting a foot from a carpeted floor can generate enough static electricity to damage an ESD.

1-4-1 Warnings
- When servicing, do not approach the LASER exit with the eye too closely. In case it is necessary to confirm LASER beam emission, be sure to observe from a distance of more than 30 cm from the surface of the objective lens on the optical pick-up block.
- Do not attempt to handle the objective lens when the DISC is not on the tray.
1-4-2 Laser Diode Specifications
Material: GaAs+ GaAlAs
Wavelength: 760-800 nm
Emission Duration: Continuous
Laser Output: 0.2 mw (measured at a 1.6 mm distance from the objective lens surface on the optical pick-up block.)
1-4-3 Handling the Optical Pick-up
- Static electricity from clothing or the body may cause electrostatic breakdown of the laser diode in the Optical Pickup. Follow this procedure:
- Place a conductive sheet on the work bench (i.e., the black sheet used for wrapping repair parts.) Note: The surface of the work bench should be covered by a copper ground plane, which is grounded.
- The repair technician must wear a wrist strap which is grounded to the copper sheet.
- To remove the Optical Pickup block: Place the set on the conductive sheet, and momentarily touch the conductive sheet with both hands. (While working, do not allow any electrostatic sources--such as clothes--to touch the unit.)
- Ground the "Short Terminal" (located on the PCB, inside the Pickup Assembly) before replacing the Pickup. This terminal should be shorted whenever the Pickup Assembly is lifted or moved.
- After replacing the Pickup, reopen the Short Terminal. See diagrams below.
1-5 Special Precautions for HDD
* HDD Data Maintenance Step
- Since the data on the HDD is weak to mechanical shock, place the HDD in a safe location that is free from mechanical shock once it is removed from the main unit.
- In order to safe keep the data on the HDD, back up the data before the repair or make sure not to place the HDD near any electrical appliance that generates a strong magnetic field.

Avoid getting fingerprints on the writing surface of a disc. It may cause the disc to not read properly.
Depending on the content of the disc, the initial screen may appear different. Any piracy could not be runnable in the player. Otherwise, it violates the CSS recommendations.
What is CSS (Content Scrambling System)? The CSS is a copy protection device that prevents the content of a DVD from being copied into the HDD of the PC as it is, unlike other media, executable directly from the PC. And it is also a data decryption system that decrypts the key encryption with the encrypted title key (of the DVD title) and the player key (of the DVD player).
Position of the DVD Player
Place it on a stand or cabinet shelf, or under the TV stand.
Selecting the Listening Position
The listening position should be located about 2.5 to 3 times the distance of the TV's screen size away from the TV. Example: For 32" TVs 2~2.4m (6~8feet), For 55" TVs 3.5~4m (11~13feet).
Front Speakers L R
Place these speakers in front of your listening position, facing inwards (about 45°) toward you.
Place the speakers so that their tweeters will be at the same height as your ear.
Align the front face of the front speakers with the front face of the center speaker or place them slightly in front of the center speakers.
Center Speaker C
It is best to install it at the same height as the front speakers. You can also install it directly over or under the TV.
Rear Speakers SL SR
Place these speakers behind your listening position.
If there isn't enough room, place these speakers so they face each other.
Place them about 60 to 90cm (2 to 3feet) above your ear, facing slightly downward.
* Unlike the front and center speakers, the rear speakers are used to handle mainly sound effects and sound will not come from them all the time.
Subwoofer SW
The position of the subwoofer is not so critical. Place it anywhere you like.

Example: Connect the green center speaker cable to the green center speaker output terminal on the rear of the subwoofer according to the polarity markings (+/-).
Safety Notes for Speakers:
- Do not let children play with or near the speakers. They could get hurt if a speaker falls.
- When connecting the speaker wires to the speakers, make sure that the polarity (+/-) is correct.
- Keep the subwoofer speaker out of reach of children so as to prevent children from inserting their hands or alien substances into the duct (hole) of the subwoofer speaker.
- Do not hang on the wall through the duct (hole).
- If you place a speaker near your TV set, screen color may be distorted because of the magnetic field generated by the speaker. If this occurs, place the speaker away from your TV set.
