Prior to shipment from the factory, the products are strictly inspected to conform with the recognized product
safety and electrical codes of the countries in which they are to be sold. However, in order to maintain such com-
pliance, it is equally important to implement the following precautions when a set is being serviced.

products using cathode ray tubes and those specified for compliance with various regulations
regarding spurious radiation emission.
3. Use Specified internal wiring. Note especially:
1) Double insulated wires
2) High voltage leads
4. Use specified insulating materials for hazardous live parts. Note especially:
1) Insulation Tape
2) PVC tubing
3) Spacers
4) Insulation sheets for transistor
5. Observe that wires do not contact heat producing
parts (heatsinks, oxide metal film resistors, fusible
resistors, etc.)
6. Check that replaced wires do not contact sharp edged
or pointed parts.
7. 1) When a power cord has been replaced, check
that A mark is made on the cord, under strain,
near the aperture, and the flexible cord is
subjected 100 times to a pull of 40N for a duration
