SAFETY CHECK-OUT ( US model only )

After correcting the original service problem, perfom the following safety checks before releasing the set to the customer: l. Check the area of your repair for unsoldered or poorly-soldered connections. Check the entire board surface for solder splashes and bridges. 2. Check the interboard wiring to ensure that no wires are "pinched" or contact high-wattage resistors. 3. Check that all control knobs, shields, covers, ground straps, and mounting hardware have been replaced. Be absolutely certain that you have replaced all the insulators. 4. Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly transistors, that were installed during a previous repair. Point them out to the customer and recommend their replacement. 5. Look for parts which, through functioning, show obvious signs of deterioration. Point them out to the customer and recom mend their replacement. 6. Check the line cords for cracks and abrasion. Recommend the replacement of any such line cord to the customer. 7. Check the condition of the monopole antenna (if any). Make sure the end is not broken off, and has the plastic cap on it. Point out the danger of impalement on a broken antenna to the customer, and recommend the antenna's replacement. 8. Check the B+ and HV to see they are at the values specified. Make sure your instruments are accurate;be suspicious of your HV meter if sets always have low HV. 9. Check the antenna temminals, metal trim, "metallized" knobs, screws, and all other exposed metal parts for AC leakage. Check leakage as described below.

LEAKAGE TEST The AC leakage from any exposed metal part to earth ground and from all exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part having a return to chassis, must not exceed 0.5mA (500 microampers) . Leakage current can be measured by any one of three methods. 1. A commercial leakage tester, such as the Simpson 229 or RCA WT-540A. Follow the manufacturers' instructions to usc these instruments. 2. A battery-operated AC milliammeter. The Data Precision 245 digital multimeter is suitable for this job. 3. Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of a VOM or battery-operated AC voltmeter. The "limit" indication is 0.75V, so analog meters must have an accurate lowvoltage scale. The Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63Trd are examples of a passive VOM that is suitable. NearIy all battery operated digital multimeters that have a 2V AC range are suitable. (See Fig. A) HOW TO FIND A GOOD EARTH GROUND A cold-water pipe is guaranteed earth ground;the cover-plate retaining screw on most AC outlet boxes is also at earth ground. If the retaining screw is to be used as your earth-ground, verify that it is at ground by measuring the resistance between it and a coldwater pipe with an ohmmeter. The reading should be zero ohms. If a cold-water pipe is not accessible, connect a 60-l00 watts trouble light (not a neon lamp) between the hot side of the receptacle and the retaining screw. Try both slots, if necessary, to locate the hot side of the line, the lamp should light at normal brilliance if the screw is at ground potential. (See Fig. B)

The S connection sends the two signals separately preventing degradation, and gives better picture quality compared to conventional connections. · Because the high quality pictures on a DVD disc contain a lot of information, picture noise may appear. In this case, reduce the SHARPNESS level in the VIDEO menu (see SHARPNESS on page 31).

· Connect your DVD player directly to your TV. Connecting the DVD player through other video equipment will cause unwanted picture noise. · When the DVD player is connected using VIDEO 4 IN, its MONITOR OUT signals cannot be output. · Some DVD player connectors may be labeled Y, B-Y, and R-Y. In this case, connect Y (green) on the projection TV to Y on the DVD player, CB (blue) to B-Y, and CR (red) to R-Y. · The jacks of this projection TV are colored in green (Y), blue (CB), and red (CR). If line output connectors of your DVD player have different colors, make connections according to their labels. · Because the high quality pictures on a DVD disc contain a lot of information, picture noise may appear. In this case, reduce the SHARPNESS level in the VIDEO menu (see SHARPNESS on page 31). · If the incorrect colors appear when using this component video input, recheck the connections they may be reversed.

Using the S-Link function
S-Link function is a Sony innovation designed to make your Sony components work together. It allows you to switch automatically the TV's input mode to video when you press the play button on your Sony S-Link VCR. It also allows you to turn the VCR and TV off at the same time with the SYSTEM OFF button on the remote control (see page 44 for details).
Notes
· The projection TV may malfunction if you connect the S-Link cable to the projection TV without connecting the other end of the cable to the VCR. · When making the S-Link connection, be sure to insert all the connectors firmly.

Using the S-Link function with a Sony AV receiver
When making S-Link connections through a Sony AV receiver, set the TV speaker switch to OFF, CENTER or SAVA SP, but never to ON (see page 35). Refer also to the Operating Instructions supplied with your VCR, DBS tuner, LD player, AV receiver, and other Sony video equipment for details.
