PRODUCT SAFETY SERVICING GUIDELINES
FOR BLU-RAY DISC PLAYER PRODUCTS
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
this manual was prepared for use only by properly trained audio-video service
technicians.
When servicing this product, under no circumstances should the original design
be modified or altered without permission from Jvc. all components should be
replaced only with types identical to those in the original circuit and their physical
location, wiring and lead dress must conform to original layout upon completion of
repairs.
Special components are also used to prevent x-radiation, shock and fire hazard.
these components are indicated by the letter "x" included in their component des-
ignators and are required to maintain safe performance. no deviations are allowed
without prior approval by Jvc.
circuit diagrams may occasionally differ from the actual circuit used. this way,
implementation of the latest safety and performance improvement changes into the
set is not delayed until the new service literature is printed.
CAUTION
: do not attempt to modify this product in any way. never perform cus-
tomized installations without manufacturer's approval. unauthorized modifications
will not only void the warranty, but may lead to property damage or user injury.
Service work should be performed only after you are thoroughly familiar with these
safety checks and servicing guidelines.
GRAPHIC SYMBOLS
the exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to
alert the service personnel to important safety information in the
service literature.
the lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert the service personnel to the presence of
noninsulated "dangerous voltage" that may be of sufficient magnitude
to constitute a risk of electric shock.
the pictorial representation of a fuse and its rating within an equi-
lateral triangle is intended to convey to the service personnel the
following fuse replacement caution notice:

SERVICE INFORMATION
While servicing, use an isolation transformer for protection from ac line shock. after
the original service problem has been corrected, make a check of the following:
FIRE AND SHOCK HAZARD
1. Be sure that all components are positioned to avoid a possibility of adjacent
component shorts. this is especially important on items trans-ported to and from
the repair shop.
2. verify that all protective devices such as insulators, barriers, covers, shields,
strain reliefs, power supply cords, and other hardware have been reinstalled per
the original design. Be sure that the safety purpose of the polarized line plug has
not been defeated.
3. Soldering must be inspected to discover possible cold solder joints, solder
splashes, or sharp solder points. Be certain to remove all loose foreign par-
ticles.
4. check for physical evidence of damage or deterioration to parts and compo-
nents, for frayed leads or damaged insulation (including the ac cord), and
replace if necessary.
5. no lead or component should touch a high current device or a resistor rated at 1
watt or more. lead tension around protruding metal surfaces must be avoided.
6. after reassembly of the set, always perform an ac leakage test on all exposed
metallic parts of the cabinet (the channel selector knobs, antenna terminals,
handle and screws) to be sure that set is safe to operate without danger of
electrical shock. do not uSe a line iSolation tranSForMer durinG
thiS teSt. use an ac voltmeter having 5000 ohms per volt or more sensitivity
in the following manner: connect a 1500 ohm, 10 watt resistor, paralleled by a
.15 mfd 150v ac type capacitor between a known good earth ground water pipe,
conduit, etc.) and the exposed metallic parts, one at a time. Measure the ac volt-
age across the combination of 1500 ohm resistor and .15 mfd capacitor. reverse
the ac plug by using a non-polarized adaptor and repeat ac voltage measure-
ments for each exposed metallic part. voltage measured must not exceed 0.75
volts rMS. this corresponds to 0.5 milliamp ac. any value exceeding this limit
constitutes a potential shock hazard and must be corrected immediately.
TIPS ON PROPER INSTALLATION
1. never install any receiver in a closed-in recess, cubbyhole, or closely fitting shelf
space over, or close to, a heat duct, or in the path of heated air flow.
2. avoid conditions of high humidity such as: outdoor patio installations where dew
is a factor, near steam radiators where steam leakage is a factor, etc.
3. avoid placement where draperies may obstruct venting. the customer should
also avoid the use of decorative scarves or other coverings that might obstruct
ventilation.
4. Wall- and shelf-mounted installations using a commercial mounting kit must
follow the factory-approved mounting instructions. a product mounted to a shelf
or platform must retain its original feet (or the equivalent thickness in spacers) to
provide adequate air flow across the bottom. Bolts or screws used for fasteners
must not touch any parts or wiring. Perform leakage tests on customized instal-
lations.
5. caution customers against mounting a product on a sloping shelf or in a tilted
position, unless the receiver is properly secured.
6. a product on a roll-about cart should be stable in its mounting to the cart.
caution the customer on the hazards of trying to roll a cart with small casters
across thresholds or deep pile carpets.
7. caution customers against using extension cords. explain that a forest of exten-
sions, sprouting from a single outlet, can lead to disastrous consequences to
home and family.
