Service and Inspection Precautions

1. Obey precautionary markings and instructionsLabels and stamps on the cabinet, chassis, and components identify areasrequiring special precautions. Be sure to observe these precautions, as wellas all precautions listed in the operating manual and other associateddocuments.

2. Use designated parts onlyThe set’s components possess important safety characteristics, such asnoncombustibility and the ability to tolerate large voltages. Be sure thatreplacement parts possess the same safety characteristics as the originals.Also remember that the 0 mark, which appears in circuit diagrams andparts lists, denotes components that have particularly important safetyfunctions; be extra sure to use only the designated components.

3. Always follow the original design when mountingparts and routing wires

The original layout includes various safety features, such as inclusion ofinsulating materials (tubes and tape) and the mounting of parts above theprinter board. In addition, internal wiring has been routed and clamped soas to keep it away from hot or high-voltage parts. When mounting parts orrouting wires, therefore, be sure to duplicate the original layout.

4. Inspect after completing serviceAfter servicing, inspect to make sure that all screws, components, and wiringhave been returned to their original condition. Also check the area aroundthe repair location to ensure that repair work has caused no damage, andconfirm safety.

5. When replacing chip components...Never reuse components. Also remember that the negative side of tantalumcapacitors is easily damaged by heat.

6. When handling flexible print boards...• The temperature of the soldering-iron tip should be about 270C.• Do not apply the tip more than three times to the same pattern.• Handle patterns with care; never apply force.

Caution: Remember that hard disk drives are easily damaged byvibration. Always handle with care.

Caution Markings for Lithium/Ion Battery - The following or similar

texts shall be provided on battery pack of equipment or in both the

operating and the service instructions.

CAUTION: Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced.

Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by

the manufacturer. Discard used batteries according to the

manufacturer’s instructions.

CAUTION: The battery pack used in this device may present a fire

or chemical burn hazard if mistreated. Do not disassemble, heat

above 100°C (212°F) or incinerate.

Dispose of used battery promptly.

Keep away from children.

CAUTION: Changing the back up battery.

• Overcharging, short circuiting, reverse charging, multilation or

incineration of the cells must be avoided to prevent one or more of

the following occurrences; release of toxic materials, release of

hydrogen and/or oxygen gas, rise in surface temperature.

• If a cell has leaked or vented, it should be replaced immediately

while avoiding to touch it without any protection.
