Proper service and repair is important to the safe,
reliable operation of all Philips Consumer Electronics
Company** Equipment. The service procedures
recommended by Philips and described in this service
manual are effective methods of performing service
operations. Some of these service operations require
the use of tools specially designed for the purpose. The
special tools should be used when and as
recommended.
It is important to note that this manual contains various
CAUTIONS and NOTICES which should be carefully
read in order to minimize the risk of personal injury to
service personnel. The possibility exists that improper
service methods may damage the equipment. It is also
important to understand that these CAUTIONS and
NOTICES ARE NOT EXHAUSTIVE. Philips could not
possibly know, evaluate and advise the service trade of
all conceivable ways in which service might be done or
of the possible hazardous consequences of each way.
Consequently, Philips has not undertaken any such
broad evaluation. Accordingly, a servicer who uses a
service procedure or tool which is not recommended by
Philips must first satisfy himself thoroughly that neither
his safety nor the safe operation of the equipment will
be jeopardized by the service method selected.
* * Hereafter throughout this manual, Philips Consumer
Electronics Company will be referred to as Philips.

characteristics are identified with a

Use of substitute replacement parts which do not have
the same specified safety characteristics may create
shock, fire, or other hazards.
Under no circumstances should the original design be
modified or altered without written permission from
Philips. Philips assumes no liability, express or implied,
arising out of any unauthorized modification of design.
Servicer assumes all liability.
