WARNING
‘To prevent the risk of fre, smoke, or electrical shock and to ensure safe operation, please be sure to follow the safety guidelines
below.
1, Atplaces where special caution is required, the necessary safety precautions are clearly labeled or printed, far example, on the
cabinet, or on the part concemed. Please follow these safely precautions, and also those listed in the Owner's Manual.
2. Parts which have as, mark inthe circuit diagram or in the pars list are essential for safety. When replacing these parts, be
sure to use only the specified parts.
3. Use the specified types for internal wiring (double-insulated wiring, et)
4, When replacing parts on the AC primary side (power transformer, electric switch, electrical card, noise-prevention condenser,
etc.) wind the lead wire and secure it by soldering,
5. Do not let the wiring come into contact with heat-emitting devices (fuse resistor, radiator plate, ete).
6. When replacing the wiring, make sure that it is notin contact withthe unfinished or rough edge of a par.
7. When replacing the power cord (except for the plug-in type), tug it from various directions to confirm that it does not slip out of
place.
8. Spacing
lt soldering was done on the AC primary circu, confirm that the interval between the soldered terminals or between the terminal
and surrounding metalic parts is at least the minimum required (between the primary circuit and the chassis: at least 6.5 mm;
between primary circuit terminals: at least 4.0 mm; betwoon primary circult terminals and secondary circuit terminals: at least 6.5,
mm).
