IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
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 also is 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.
