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. Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly transis-
tors, that were installed during a previous repair. Point them out to
the customer and recommend their replacement.
4. Look for parts which, though functioning, show obvious signs
of deterioration. Point them out to the customer and recommend
their replacement.
5. Check the line cord for cracks and abrasion. Recommend the
replacement of any such line cord to the customer.
6. Flexible Circuit Board Repairing
· Keep the temperature of the soldering iron around 270°C during
repairing.
· Do not touch the soldering iron on the same conductor of the cir
cuit board (within 3 times).
· Be careful not to apply force on the conductor when soldering or
unsoldering.

Precautions
· After operating the unit with an AC power adaptor, disconnect the AC
power adaptor from the wall outlet if the set is not to be used for an ex-
tended period of time.
Brightness of a subject
Color Video Camera might not work with its best performance in a place
where brightness exceeds the illumination range (such as a place exposed to
direct sunlight).
Avoid specialized application
Avoid using Color Video Camera for monitoring application where it would
be forced to focus on a stationary object for a long period of time. Also
avoid focusing the camera on an extremely bright object such as sunlight or
a fluorescent lamp. Otherwise the color filter might be damaged.
Precaution on copyright
Television programs, pictures, magazines, and other materials may be copy-
righted. Unauthorized recording or storing of such materials violates the
provision of the copyright laws.
