1 Safety Precautions 1.1. General Guidelines 1. IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE There are special components used in this equipment which are important for safety. These parts are marked by in the Schematic Diagrams, Circuit Board Layout, Exploded Views and Replacement Parts List. It is essential that these critical parts should be replaced with manufacturer’s specified parts to prevent X-RADIATION, shock fire, or other hazards.
2 Warning 2.1. Prevention of Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) to Electrostatic Sensitive (ES) Devices Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be damaged easily by static electricity. Such components commonly are called Elec- trostatic Sensitive (ES) Devices. Examples of typical ES devices are integrated circuits and some field-effect transistors and semi- conductor “chip”...
2.2. Service caution based on legal restrictions 2.2.1. General description about Lead Free Solder (PbF) The lead free solder has been used in the mounting process of all electrical components on the printed circuit boards used for this equipment in considering the globally environmental conservation. The normal solder is the alloy of tin (Sn) and lead (Pb).
A replacement fuse cover can be purchased from your local Panasonic Dealer. If the fitted moulded plug is unsuitable for the socket outlet in your home then the fuse should be removed and the plug cut off and disposed of safety.
Note: The lithium battery is a critical component. (Type No.: ML-614S/DN Manufactured by Energy Company, Panasonic Corporation) It must never be subjected to excessive heat or discharge. It must therefore only be fitted in equipment designed specifically for its use.

Note: Above caution is applicable for a battery pack which is for SDR-S45 series, as well.
3 Service Navigation 3.1. Service Information This service manual contains technical information which will allow service personnel's to understand and service this model. Please place orders using the parts list and not the drawing reference numbers. If the circuit is changed or modified, this information will be followed by supplement service manual to be filed with original service manual.
3.2. How to Define the Model Suffix (NTSC or PAL model) There are three kinds of SDR-S45, regardless of the colours. • a) SDR-S45EG/EF/EC/EP/EB/GN • b) SDR-S45EE • c) SDR-S45GC/GA/PU/PR What is the difference is that the ”INITIAL SETTINGS” data which is stored in Flash ROM mounted on Main P.C.B. 3.2.1.
