WARNING AND CAUTIONS
CAUTION
These servicing instructions are for use by qualified service personnel only To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not perform any
servicing other than that contained in the operating instructions unless you are qualified to do so.
WARNING!!
An isolation transformer should be used during any service to avoid possible shock hazard, because of live chassis. The chassis of
this receiver is directly connected to the ac power line.
! SAFETY-RELATED COMPONENT WARNING!!
Components identified by shading and ! mark on the schematic diagrams, exploded views, and in the parts list are critical for safe
operation. Replace these components with Sony parts whose part numbers appear as shown in this manual or in supplements
published by Sony. Circuit adjustments that are critical for safe operation are identified in this manual. Follow these procedures
whenever critical components are replaced or improper operation is suspected.
ATTENTION!!
Ces instructions de service sont à l'usage du personnel de service qualifié seulement. Pour prévenir le risque de choc électrique, ne
pas faire l'entretien autre que celui contenu dans le Mode d'emploi à moins que vous soyez qualifié faire ainsi.
Afin d'eviter tout risque d'electrocution provenant d'un chássis sous tension, un transformateur d'isolement doit etre utilisé lors de tout
dépannage. Le chássis de ce récepteur est directement raccordé à l'alimentation du secteur
! ATTENTION AUX COMPOSANTS RELATIFS A LA SECURITE!!
Les composants identifies par une trame et par une marque ! sur les schemas de principe, les vues explosees et les listes de pieces
sont d'une importance critique pour la securite du fonctionnement. Ne les remplacer que par des composants Sony dont le numero
de piece est indique dans le present manuel ou dans des supplements publies par Sony. Les reglages de circuit dont l'importance
est critique pour la securite du fonctionnement sont identifies dans le present manuel. Suivre ces procedures lors de chaque
remplacement de composants critiques, ou lorsqu'un mauvais fonctionnement suspecte.

LEAKAGE TEST
The AC leakage from any exposed metal part to earth ground and from all
exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part having a return to chassis,
must not exceed 0.5 mA (500 microamperes).
Leakage current can be measured by any one of three methods.
1. A commercial leakage tester, such as the Simpson 229 or RCA WT-
540A. Follow the manufacturers' instructions to use these instruments.
2. A battery-operated AC milliammeter. The Data Precision 245 digital
multimeter is suitable for this job.
3. Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of a VOM or
battery-operated AC voltmeter. The "limit" indication is 0.75 V, so
analog meters must have an accurate low-voltage scale. The Simpson 250
and Sanwa SH-63Trd are examples of a passive VOMs that are suitable.
Nearly all battery operated digital multimeters that have a 2 V AC range
are suitable. (See Fig. A)

SAFETY CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the following safety
checks before releasing the set to the customer:
1. Check the area of your repair for unsoldered or poorly-soldered
connections. Check the entire board surface for solder splashes and
bridges.
2. Check the interboard wiring to ensure that no wires are "pinched" or
contact high-wattage resistors.
3. Check that all control knobs, shields, covers, ground straps, and
mounting hardware have been replaced. Be absolutely certain that you
have replaced all the insulators.
4. Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly transistors, that
were installed during a previous repair. Point them out to the customer
and recommend their replacement.
5. Look for parts which, though functioning, show obvious signs of
deterioration. Point them out to the customer and recommend their
replacement.
6. Check the line cords for cracks and abrasion. Recommend the
replacement of any such line cord to the customer.
7. Check the connector shell, metal trim, "metallized" knobs, screws, and
all other exposed metal parts for AC Leakage. Check leakage as de-
scribed right.
