Precaution to be taken when replacing and servicing the laser pickup.
The following precautions must be observed during servicing to protect your eyes against exposure to the laser.
Warning of possible eye damage when repairing:
If the AC adaptor or batteries are connected when the top houising (disc cover) of the unit is removed, and the PLAY key is
pressed, the laser will light up during focus access (2-3 seconds). (Fig. 2-1) During the operation, the laser will leak from the
opening between the magnetic head and the mechanical chassis (Fig. 2-2). In order to protect your eyes, you must not look
at the laser during repair. Before repairing be sure to disconnect the AC adaptor and remove the batteries.
