SAFETY-RELATED  COMPONENT  WARNING!!
COMPONENTS IDENTIFIED BY MARK 0 OR DOTTED LINE WITH 
MARK 
0 ON THE SCHEMATIC DIAGRAMS AND IN THE PARTS LIST 
ARE CRITICAL TO SAFE OPERATION. REPLACE THESE COMPO-
NENTS WITH SONY PARTS WHOSE PART NUMBERS APPEAR AS 
SHOWN IN THIS MANUAL OR IN SUPPLEMENTS PUBLISHED BY 
SONY. 
ATTENTION AU  COMPOSANT  AYANT  RAPPORT 
À  LA  SÉCURITÉ!
LES COMPOSANTS IDENTIFIÉS PAR UNE MARQUE 0 SUR LES 
DIAGRAMMES SCHÉMATIQUES ET LA LISTE DES PIÈCES SONT 
CRITIQUES POUR LA SÉCURITÉ DE FONCTIONNEMENT. NE REM-
PLACER CES COMPOSANTS QUE PAR DES PIÈCES SONY DONT 
LES NUMÉROS SONT DONNÉS DANS CE MANUEL OU DANS LES 
SUPPLÉMENTS PUBLIÉS PAR SONY.
Caution
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced.
Replace only with the same or equivalent type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
CHEMICALS
Some chemicals used for servicing are highly volatile.
Their evaporation caused by improper management affects your health 
and environment, and wastes resources.
Manage the chemicals carefully as follows.
•  Store chemicals sealed in a specific place to prevent from exposure 
to high temperature or direct sunlight.
•  Avoid dividing chemicals into excessive numbers of small containers 
to reduce natural evaporation.
•  Keep containers sealed to avoid natural evaporation when chemicals 
are not in use.
•  Avoid using chemicals as much as possible. When using chemicals, 
divide only required amount to a small plate from the container and 
use up it.
EXTERIOR  PARTS
Be careful to the following points for plastic parts used in this unit.
•  Use a piece of cleaning paper or cleaning cloth for cleaning plastic 
parts. Avoid using chemicals.
 
Even if you have to use chemicals to clean heavy dirt, don’t use paint 
thinner, ketone, nor alcohol.
•  Insert the specific screws vertically to the part when installing a 
plastic part.
 
Be careful not to tighten screws too much.
SAFETY  CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the following 
safety checks before releasing the set to the customer.
1.  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.  Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly transistors, 
that were installed during a previous repair. Point them out to the 
customer and recommend their replacement.
4.  Look for parts which, through functioning, show obvious signs of 
deterioration. Point them out to the customer and recommend their 
replacement.
5.  Check the B+ voltage to see it is at the values specified.
6.  Flexible Circuit Board Repairing
 
•   Keep the temperature of the soldering iron around 350°C during 
repairing.
 
•   Do not touch the soldering iron on the same conductor of the circuit 
board (within 3 times).
 
•   Be careful not to apply force on the conductor when soldering or 
unsoldering.
UNLEADED  SOLDER
This unit uses 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
Be careful to the following points to solder or unsolder.
•  Set the soldering iron tip temperature to 350°C approximately.
 
If cannot control temperature, solder/unsolder at high temperature 
for a short time.
 
Caution: The printed pattern (copper foil) may peel away if the 
heated tip is applied for too long, so be careful!
 
 
Unleaded solder is more viscous (sticky, less prone to 
flow) than ordinary solder so use caution not to let solder 
bridges occur such as on IC pins, etc.
•  Be sure to control soldering iron tips used for unleaded solder and 
those for leaded solder so they are managed separately. Mixing 
unleaded solder and leaded solder will cause detachment phenom-
enon.

Destination Data
When you replace to the repairing board, the written destination data of repairing board also might be changed to original setting.
USB Serial No.
The set is shipped with a unique ID (USB Serial No.) written in it.
This ID has not been written in a new board for service, and therefore it must be entered after the board replacement.

1-3.  METHOD FOR CHECKING THE AS SLIDER UNIT (863)
Make sure to confirm below before replacing the AS Slider B Assy or the AS Holder Actuator Assy.
(1)  Remove the CV Rear Cover Assy (863), and temporally mount the AS Slider Unit (863).
(2)  Set the AS Slider Unit (863) upwards as shown in figure, and put it on a stable place.
 
(3)  Select “Slider Unit Check” of the adjustment software, and then confirm the movement to the directions of Pitch and Yaw, and if an error occurs,
 
replace it with the component part corresponding to the movement.
 
Note: The actual image may differ from the image shown above.
