UNLEADED SOLDER
Boards requiring use of unleaded solder are printed with the lead-
free mark (LF) indicating the solder contains no lead.
(
Caution:
Some printed circuit boards may not come printed with
the lead free mark due to their particular size)
: LEAD FREE MARK
Unleaded solder has the following characteristics.
• Unleaded solder melts at a temperature about 40 °C higher
than ordinary solder.
Ordinary soldering irons can be used but the iron tip has to be
applied to the solder joint for a slightly longer time.
Soldering irons using a temperature regulator should be set to
about 350 °C.
Caution:
The printed pattern (copper foil) may peel away if
the heated tip is applied for too long, so be careful!
• Strong
viscosity
Unleaded solder is more viscous (sticky, less prone to fl ow)
than ordinary solder so use caution not to let solder bridges
occur such as on IC pins, etc.
•
Usable with ordinary solder
It is best to use only unleaded solder but unleaded solder may
also be added to ordinary solder.
NOTES ON HANDLING THE OPTICAL PICK-UP
BLOCK OR BASE UNIT
The laser diode in the optical pick-up block may suffer electrostat-
ic break-down because of the potential difference generated by the
charged electrostatic load, etc. on clothing and the human body.
During repair, pay attention to electrostatic break-down and also
use the procedure in the printed matter which is included in the
repair parts.
The fl exible board is easily damaged and should be handled with
care.
NOTES ON LASER DIODE EMISSION CHECK
The laser beam on this model is concentrated so as to be focused
on the disc refl ective surface by the objective lens in the optical
pickup block. Therefore, when checking the laser diode emission,
observe from more than 30 cm away from the objective lens.
RELEASING THE DISC SLOT LOCK
The disc slot lock function for the antitheft of an demonstration
disc in the store is equipped.
Releasing Procedure:
1. Press the [
?/1
] button to turn on the system.
2. Press the [FUNCTION] button on the remote commander to
select “DVD”.
3. Press
the
[
x
] and [
Z
] button on the set simultaneously and hold
down until “UNLOCKED” displayed on the fl uorescent indi-
cator tube (around 5 seconds).
Note:
When “LOCKED” is displayed, the disc slot lock is not released by
turning power on/off with the [
?/1
] button.
RELEASING THE DEMO PLAY LOCK
Releasing Procedure :
1. Press the [
?/1
] button to turn on the system.
2. Press the [FUNCTION] button on the remote commander to
select “DVD”.
3. Press the [
x
] and [
N
] button on the set simultaneously and
hold down until “DEMO OFF” displayed on the fl uorescent
indicator tube (around 5 seconds).
Note:
When “DEMO PLAY” is displayed, the DEMO play lock is not
released by turning power on/off with the [
?/1
] button.
NOTE OF REPLACING THE IC102 AND IC103 ON
THE DMB-FIT BOARD
IC102 and IC103 on the DMB-FIT board cannot exchange with
single. When IC102 and IC103 on the DMB-FIT board is dam-
aged, exchange the entire mounted board.
