SA-AK450PL 1 Safety Precautions 1.1. General Guidelines 1. When servicing, observe the original lead dress. If a short circuit is found, replace all parts which have been overheated or damaged by the short circuit. 2. After servicing, ensure that all the protective devices such as insulation barriers and insulation papers shields are properly installed.
SA-AK450PL 1.3. Protection Circuitry The protection circuitry may have operated if either of the following conditions are noticed: · No sound is heard when the power is turned on. · Sound stops during a performance. The function of this circuitry is to prevent circuitry damage if, for example, the positive and negative speaker connection wires are “shorted”, or if speaker systems with an impedance less than the indicated rated impedance of the amplifier are used.

SA-AK450PL which should be removed for potential shock reasons prior to applying power to the unit under test. 2. After removing an electrical assembly equiped with ES devices, place the assembly on a conductive surface such as aluminium foil, to prevent electrostatic charge build up or exposure of the assembly.
SA-AK450PL 3 Handling Precautions For Traverse Deck The laser diode in the traverse deck (optical pickup) may break down due to potential difference caused by the static electricity of clothes or our human body. So, be careful of electrostatic breakdown during repair of the traverse deck (optical pickup).
SA-AK450PL 4 Precaution of laser diode CAUTION: This unit utilizes a class 1 laser diode in the optical pickup unit . Invisible laser radiation is emitted from the optical pickup lens. Wavelength: 780nm When the unit is turned on: 1. Do not look directly into the optical pickup lens.
SA-AK450PL 5 Warning 5.1. Service caution based on legal restrictions 5.1.1. General description about Lead Free Solder (PbF) The lead free solder has been used in the mounting process of all electrical components on the printed circuit boards used for this equipment in considering the globally environmental conservation.
