The following table lists the differing points between Models ( HR-S6850EU, HR-S6851EU, HR-S6852EU and HR-S6855EK) in this series.
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.

(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.

<Note 2a>
· 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.
<Note 2b>
· 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.
<Note 2c>
· 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.
<Note 4a>
· When it is required to remove the screws (S4a to S4b) re-
taining the Mechanism assembly, please refer to the "Pro-
cedures for Lowering the Cassette holder assembly"(See
on page 1-2).
· When reattaching the Mechanism assembly to the Main
board assembly, take care not to damage the sensors and
switch on the Main board assembly.
· 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.
· The wire (WR4a) has excess length that may be loose, as it
is quite long. After inserting the wire and connectors, the
loose portion of the wire should be taken up and accommo-
dated between the A/C head base and the main deck.
