NOTE:
1. When using the cassette tape:
a. Be sure to remove a cassette lid cover of cassette tape.
b. Be sure to install the Lock Screw to Cassette Up Unit. After servicing, be sure to remove the Lock Screw.
Refer to "How to Hold the Cassette Up Unit in the Down Position without Cassette Cover Installed."
c. Select the H. Safety Defeat in SERVICE MODE. Refer to "SERVICE MODE SPECIFICATION."
Or, connect a silicon diode on component side of the Main C.B.A. as shown to defeat safety function.
(Since Takeup Reel sensor, located on Main C.B.A. does not work when opening Main C.B.A., the mechanism does not
work (Reel lock). Therefore, make sure to defeat Safety function.)

it correctly. Refer to "Cylinder Ass'y" in "MECHANISM SECTION."
3. The LCD open/close SW. is for changing between LCD Display or EVF Display. When turning on LCD Display, place some
paper or tape, etc. on LCD open/close SW. so that this SW. stays ON.
