SERVICE NOTE POWER SUPPLY DURING REPAIRS Battery switch In this unit, about 10 seconds after power is supplied (8.4 V) to the battery terminal using the service power cord (J-6082-223-A), the power is shut off so that the unit cannot operate. This following two methods are available to prevent this.
NOTE FOR REPAIR When remove a connector, don’t pull at wire of connector. Be in danger of the snapping of a wire. Make sure that the flat cable and flexible board are not cracked of bent at the terminal. Do not insert the cable insufficiently nor crookedly. When installing a connector, don’t press down at wire of connector.
