SAFETY-RELATED COMPONENT WARNING !!
COMPONENTS IDENTIFIED BY MARK ! OR DOT-
TED LINE WITH MARK ! ON THE SCHEMATIC
DIAGRAMS AND INTHE PARTS LIST ARE CRITICAL
TO SAFE OPERATION. REPLACE THESE COMPO-
NENTS WITH SONY PARTS WHOSE PART NUM-
BERS APPEAR AS SHOWN IN THIS MANUAL OR IN
SUPPLEMENTS PUBLISHED BY SONY.
Notes on chip component replacement
· Never reuse a disconnected chip component.
· Notice that the minus side of a tantalum capacitor may be
damaged by heat.
Flexible Circuit Board Repairing
· Keep the temperature of soldering iron around 270°C during
repairing.
· Do not touch the soldering iron on the same conductor of the
circuit board (within 3 times).
· Be careful not to apply force on the conductor when soldering
or unsoldering.
This caution
label is located
inside the unit.
CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
other than those specified herein may result in hazardous
radiation exposure.

CD-TEXT TEST DISC
This unit is able to display the test data (character information) written in the CD on its fluorescent indicator tube.
The CD-TEXT TEST DISC (TGCS-313:4-989-366-01) is used for checking the display.
To check, perform the following procedure.
Checking Method:
1.
Turn ON the power, set the disc on a tray, and chuck the disc.
2.
Press the · button and play back the disc.
3.
The following will be displayed on the fluorescent indicator tube.
Display : 1KHZ/0 DB
4.
Rotate AMS ± knob to switch the track. The text data of each track will be displayed.
For details of the displayed contents for each track, refer to "Table 1 : CD-TEXT TEST DISC Recorded Contents and Display".
Restrictions in CD-TEXT Display
In this unit, some special characters will not be displayed properly. These will be displayed as a space or a character resembling it.

SECTION 1
SERVICING NOTE
HOW TO OPEN THE DISC TRAY WHEN POWER SWITCH
TURNS OFF
Insert a screwdriver into the aperture of the unit bottom, and
move it in the direction of arrow.
NOTES ON HANDLING THE OPTICAL PICK-UP BLOCK
OR BASE UNIT
The laser diode in the optical pick-up block may suffer electrostatic
breakdown because of the potential difference generated by the
charged electrostatic load, etc. on clothing and the human body.
During repair, pay attention to electrostatic breakdown and also use
the procedure in the printed matter which is included in the repair
parts.
The flexible board is easily damaged and should be handled with
care.
NOTES ON LASER DIODE EMISSION CHECK
The laser beam on this model is concentrated so as to be focused on
the disc reflective surface by the objective lens in the optical pick-
up block. Therefore, when checking the laser diode emission,
observe from more than 30 cm away from the objective lens.
LASER DIODE AND FOCUS SEARCH OPERATION
CHECK
Carry out the "S curve check" in "CD section adjustment" and check
that the S curve waveform is output two times.
