4. Handling Precautions For Traverse Deck
The laser diode in the traverse deck (optical pickup) may break down due to potential
difference caused by static electricity of clothes or human body. So, be careful of
electrostatic breakdown during repair of the traverse deck (optical pickup).

Handling of traverse deck (optical pickup)
1. Do not subject the traverse deck (optical pickup) to static electricity as it is
extremely sensitive to electrical shock.
2. To prevent the breakdown of the laser diode, an antistatic shorting pin is inserted
into the flexible board (FFC board).
3. Take care not to apply excessive stress to the flexible board (FFC board). When
removing or connecting the short pin, finish the job in as short time as possible.
