General Information
This chapter contains step-by-step procedures on how to disassemble the AT4220A for
maintenance and troubleshooting. To disassemble the TV, you need the following tools:
•
Wrist grounding strap and conductive mat for preventing electrostatic discharge

Philips screwdriver

Tweezers
Note:
The screws for the different components vary in size. During the disassembly process, please
group the screws with the corresponding components to avoid mismatch when doing assembly. When
you remove the boards, please be careful not to scrape them.
Warning!
The module is drived by high voltage. If you need to handle the module during operation or
just after powered off, you must take proper precautions against electric shock and must not touch the
drive circuit portion and metallic part of module within 10 minutes. The capacitors in the drive circuit
portion remain temporarily charged even after the unit is powered off. If the residual voltage is strong
enough, it could result in electric shock. Thus, we strongly suggest that you put on the wrist ground
strap and put the component on the conductive mat or bag. Besides, please keep the unit grounded
during the whole process of disassembly and assembly.
Before You Begin
