Important Safety Precautions

Prior to shipment from the factory, JVC products are strictly inspected to conform with the recognized product safety and electrical codes of the

countries in which they are to be sold. However, in order to maintain such compliance, it is equally important to implement the following precautions

when a set is being serviced.

Fig.1

1. Locations requiring special caution are denoted by labels and in-

scriptions on the cabinet, chassis and certain parts of the product.

When performing service, be sure to read and comply with these

and other cautionary notices appearing in the operation and serv-

ice manuals.

2. Parts identified by the

! symbol and shaded (

) parts are

critical for safety.

Replace only with specified part numbers.

Note: Parts in this category also include those specified to com-

ply with X-ray emission standards for products using

cathode ray tubes and those specified for compliance

with various regulations regarding spurious radiation

emission.

3. Fuse replacement caution notice.

Caution for continued protection against fire hazard.

Replace only with same type and rated fuse(s) as specified.

4. Use specified internal wiring. Note especially:

1) Wires covered with PVC tubing

2) Double insulated wires

3) High voltage leads

5. Use specified insulating materials for hazardous live parts. Note

especially:

1) Insulation Tape

3) Spacers

5) Barrier

2) PVC tubing

4) Insulation sheets for transistors

6. When replacing AC primary side components (transformers, power

cords, noise blocking capacitors, etc.) wrap ends of wires securely

about the terminals before soldering.

Power cord

Fig.2

10. Also check areas surrounding repaired locations.

11. Products using cathode ray tubes (CRTs)

In regard to such products, the cathode ray tubes themselves, the

high voltage circuits, and related circuits are specified for compli-

ance with recognized codes pertaining to X-ray emission.

Consequently, when servicing these products, replace the cath-

ode ray tubes and other parts with only the specified parts. Under

no circumstances attempt to modify these circuits.

Unauthorized modification can increase the high voltage value and

cause X-ray emission from the cathode ray tube.

12. Crimp type wire connector

In such cases as when replacing the power transformer in sets

where the connections between the power cord and power trans-

former primary lead wires are performed using crimp type connec-

tors, if replacing the connectors is unavoidable, in order to prevent

safety hazards, perform carefully and precisely according to the

following steps.

1) Connector part number : E03830-001

2) Required tool : Connector crimping tool of the proper type which

will not damage insulated parts.

3) Replacement procedure

(1) Remove the old connector by cutting the wires at a point

close to the connector.

Important : Do not reuse a connector (discard it).

Fig.7

cut close to connector

Fig.3

(2) Strip about 15 mm of the insulation from the ends of the

wires. If the wires are stranded, twist the strands to avoid

frayed conductors.

15 mm

Fig.4

(3) Align the lengths of the wires to be connected. Insert the

wires fully into the connector.

Metal sleeve

Fig.5

(4) As shown in Fig.6, use the crimping tool to crimp the metal

sleeve at the center position. Be sure to crimp fully to the

complete closure of the tool.

·Precautions during Servicing

7. Observe that wires do not contact heat producing parts (heatsinks,

oxide metal film resistors, fusible resistors, etc.)

8. Check that replaced wires do not contact sharp edged or pointed

parts.

9. When a power cord has been replaced, check that 10-15 kg of

force in any direction will not loosen it.

·Safety Check after Servicing

Examine the area surrounding the repaired location for damage or deterioration. Observe that screws, parts and wires have been returned

to original positions, Afterwards, perform the following tests and confirm the specified values in order to verify compliance with safety

standards.

1. Insulation resistance test

Confirm the specified insulation resistance or greater between power cord plug prongs and exter-

nally exposed parts of the set (RF terminals, antenna terminals, video and audio input and output

terminals, microphone jacks, earphone jacks, etc.). See table 1 below.

2. Dielectric strength test

Confirm specified dielectric strength or greater between power cord plug prongs and exposed acces-

sible parts of the set (RF terminals, antenna terminals, video and audio input and output terminals,

microphone jacks, earphone jacks, etc.). See table 1 below.

3. Clearance distance

When replacing primary circuit components, confirm specified clearance distance (d), (d') be-

tween soldered terminals, and between terminals and surrounding metallic parts. See table 1

below.

4. Leakage current test

Confirm specified or lower leakage current between earth ground/power cord plug prongs and

externally exposed accessible parts (RF terminals, antenna terminals, video and audio input and

output terminals, microphone jacks, earphone jacks, etc.).

Measuring Method : (Power ON)

Insert load Z between earth ground/power cord plug prongs and externally exposed accessible

parts. Use an AC voltmeter to measure across both terminals of load Z. See figure 9 and following

table 2.

5. Grounding (Class 1 model only)

Confirm specified or lower grounding impedance between earth pin in AC inlet and externally exposed accessible parts (Video in, Video out,

Audio in, Audio out or Fixing screw etc.).

Measuring Method:

Connect milli ohm meter between earth pin in AC inlet and exposed accessible parts. See figure 10 and grounding specifications.

DISASSEMBLY

1.3 DISASSEMBLY/ASSEMBLY METHOD

1.1 DISASSEMBLY FLOW CHART

This flowchart lists the disassembling steps for the cabi-

net parts and P.C. boards in order to gain access to

item(s) to be serviced. When reassembling, perform the

step(s) in reverse order. Bend, route and dress the flat

cables as they were originally laid.

1.2 HOW TO READ THE DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY

· Be careful not to damage the connector and wire etc. during

connection and disconnection.

When connecting the wire to the connector, be careful with

the wire direction.

· When reattaching the Front panel assembly, make sure that

the door opener a of the Cassette holder assembly is low-

ered in position prior to the reinstallation.

· When reattaching the Front panel assembly, pay careful at-

tention to the switch lever not to make it touch the switch

knob b of the Main board assembly from the side.

(If the switch knob of the Main board assembly is damaged,

cassette loading is impossible.)

· When it is required to remove the screws (S4a) retaining

the Mechanism assembly, please refer to the "Procedures

for Lowering the Cassette holder assembly"(See on page

1-2).

· When removing the Mechanism assembly only, unhook the

two spacers connecting it with the Main board assembly

with pliers from the back side of the Main board assembly

first, and then remove the Mechanism assembly.

· When reattaching the Mechanism assembly to the Main

board assembly, take care not to damage the sensors on

the Main board assembly (D3001: LED, Q3001: Start sen-

sor, Q3002: End sensor).

· When removing the PC Support from the bottom chassis,

take care not to damage the locking portion of the PC Sup-

port.

· When removing the bottom cover, push down the two tabs

(L6a) to slide the bottom cover.
