SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

The following items should be checked for continued protection of the customer and the service technician.
leakage current check

resistance check. If the leakage current exceeds 0.5 milliamps, or if the resistance from chassis to either side of the
power cord is less than 460 kohms, the set is defective.
Be sure to test for leakage current with the AC plug in both polarities, in addition, when the set's power is in each state
(on,offandstandbymode),ifapplicable.
CAUTION
Please heed the following cautions and instructions during servicing and
inspection.
◎ Heed the cautions!
Cautions which are delicate in particular for servicing
are labeled on the cabinets, the parts and the chassis,
etc. Be sure to heed these cautions and the cautions
described in the handling instructions.
◎ Cautions concerning electric shock!

importantsafetypartsthatareindicatedbythe z mark
on schematic diagrams and parts lists, be sure to use
the designated parts.

◎ Make a safety check after servicing!
Check that all screws, parts and wires removed or
disconnected when servicing have been put back in their
original positions, check that no serviced parts have
deteriorate the area around. Then make an insulation
check on the external metal connectors and between
the blades of the power plug, and otherwise check that
safetyisensured.
(Insulationcheckprocedure)
Unplug the power cord from the power outlet, disconnect
the antenna, plugs, etc., and on the power. Using a 500V
insulation resistance tester, check that the insulation
