HOW TO CHANGEDTHE CERAMIC FILTERS

This model is used two ceramic filters of CF2 and CF3.

You must used same type of color marked ceramic filters in order
to meet same specifications.

Therefore, the ceramic filter must changed two pieces together
since it's supply two pieces in one package as a spare parts.

SAFETY-RELATED COMPONENT WARNING"

COMPONENTS IDENTIFIED BY MARK A OR DOTTED
LINE WITH MARK A ON THE SCHEMATIC DIAGRAMS
AND IN THE PARTS LIST ARE CRITICAL TO SAFE
OPERATION. REPLACE THESE COMPONENTS WITH
SONY PARTS WHOSE PART NUMBERS APPEAR AS
SHOWN IN THIS MANUAL OR IN SUPPLEMENTS PUB-
LISHED BY SONY.

SAFETY CHECK-OUT

After correcting the original service problem, perform the follow-
ing safety check before releasing the set to the customer:

Check the antenna terminals, metal trim, metallized knobs,
screws, and all other exposed metal parts for AC leakage.

Check leakage as described below.

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 microampers.).

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 aresistor by means of a VOM
or battery-operatedAC 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 pas-
sive VOM that is suitable. Nearly all battery operated digital
multimeters that have a 2 V AC range are suitable. (See Fig. A)
