Safety Precautions» -, h 7- . _ ,

l. The design of this product contains special hardware and many circuits. and componens specrally for safety purposes.
For continued protection, no changes should be made to the original design unless authorized in writing by the
manufacturer. Replacement parts must be Identical to those used in the original circuits. Service should be per-
formed by qualified personnel only.

2. Alterations of the design or circuitry of the product should not be made. Any design alterations of the product
should not be made. Any design alterations or additions will void the manufacturer's warranty and will further
relieve the manufacturer of responsibility for personal injury or property damage resulting therefrom, i

3. Many electrical and mechanical parts in the product have speCial safety~related characteristics. These characteristics
are often not evident from visual inspection nor can the protection afforded by them necessarily be obtained by
using replacement components rated for higher voltage, wattage, etc. Replacement parts which have these spectal
safety characteristics are identified in the Parts List of Service Manual. Electrical components having such features
are identified by shading on the schematics and by l 7".) on the Parts List in the Service Manual, The use of a sub
stitute replacement which does not have the same safety characteristics as the recommended replacement part shown i
in the Parts List of Service Manual may create shock, fire, or other hazards.

4. The leads in the products are routed and dressed with ties, clamps, tubings, barriers and the tile to be separated from
live parts, high temperature parts, moving parts and/or sharp edges for the prevention of elricti ic shock and fire hazard
When service is required, the original lead routing and dress should be observed, and it tlimilii he rnnlirrned that they

l have been returned to normal, after re-assembling

l 5. Leakage current check (Electrical shock hazard testing)

After re-assembling the product, always perform an isolation check on the exposed metal parts of the product

l (antenna terminals, knobs, metal cabinet, screw heads, headphone lack, control shafts, etc) to be sure the product

is safe to operate without danger of electrical shock,

Do not use a line isolation transformer during this check.

- Plug the AC line cord directly into the AC outlet. Usrng a "Leakage Current Tester", measure. we leakage current i
from each exposed metal part of the cabinet, particularly any exposed metal part having a return path to the l
chassis, to a known good earth ground. Any leakage current must not exceed 0.5 mA AC (r,m.s.).

- Alternate check method
Plug the AC line cord directly into the AC outlet. Use an AC voltmeter havrng 1,000 ohms per volt or more sensi-
tivity in the following manner. Connect a 1,500 9 low resistor paralleled by a 0.15pF AC~type capacitor be
tween an exposed metal part and a known good earth ground.
Measure the AC voltage across the rESistor with the
AC voltmeter.

Move the reSistor connection to each exposed metal

part, partiCiJlarly any exposed metal part havrng a L0 J i
return path to the chaSSis, and measure the AC volt- i o 5" C W"
