+ lines, and (+) side to chassis ground. Each line should have more resistance than specified,as follows : B+ Line Minimum Resistance 130 V 1 k (Cold chassis ground) 27 V (Cold chassis ground) 17 V (Cold chassis ground) 6. When the TV set is not used for a long period of time, unplug the power cord from the AC outlet.
Page 4
1.3. LEAKAGE CURRENT HOT CHECK 1. Plug the AC cord directly into the AC outlet. Do not use a isolation transformer for this check. 2. Connect a 1.5 k , 10 W resistor, in parallel with a 0.15 capacitor, between each exposed metallic part on the set and a good earth ground, as shown in Figure 1.
Page 5
It is important to use an accurate periodically calibrated high voltage meter. 1. Reduce the brightness to minimum. 2. Set the SERVICE switch to SERVICE . 3. Measure the High Voltage. The meter reading should indicate 32.0 kV±2.5 kV. If the meter indication is out of tolerance, immediate service and correction is required to prevent the possibility of premature component failure.

2.3. CIRCUIT EXPLANATION 2.3.1. HORIZONTAL OSCILLATOR DISABLE CIRCUIT The positive DC voltage, supplied from the D503 cathode for monitoring high voltage, is applied to the IC5301 Pin11 through R503 and R5504. Under normal conditions, the voltage at IC5301 Pin 11 is less than approx. 3 V. If the high voltage at FlybackTransformer Pin 5 exceeds the specified voltage, the positive DC voltage which is supplied from the D503 cathode also increases.

This unit utilizes a class III a laser. Visible laser radiation is emitted from the optical pickup lens when the unit is turned on: 1. Do not look directly into the pickup lens. 2. Do not use optical instruments to look at the pickup lens. 3.
Page 8
5. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ES devices. 6. Do not remove a replacement ES device from its protective package until immediately before you are ready to install it. (Most replacement ES devices are packaged with leads electrically shorted together by conductive foam, aluminum foil or comparableconductive material).
