NOTE OF REPLACING THE MS-203 BOARD
NOTES ON HANDLING THE OPTICAL PICK-UP
When the MS-203 board is damaged, exchange the entire

The laser diode in the optical pick-up block may suffer electro-
static break-down because of the potential difference generated by MODEL IDENTIFICATION

During repair, pay attention to electrostatic break-down and also
use the procedure in the printed matter which is included in the
repair parts.
The flexible board is easily damaged and should be handled with
care.

on the disc reflective surface by the objective lens in the optical
pickup block. Therefore, when checking the laser diode emission, HCD-MX500i: AEP model 4-175-955-0[]
observe from more than 30 cm away from the objective lens. HCD-MX500i: Canadian model 4-175-955-2[]

UNLEADED SOLDER HCD-MX500i: Chinese model 4-175-955-4[]
Boards requiring use of unleaded solder are printed with the lead-
HCD-MX550i: AEP, UK models 4-175-955-5[]
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
Unleaded solder has the following characteristics.
· Unleaded solder melts at a temperature about 40 °C higher
than ordinary solder.
Ordinary soldering irons can be used but the iron tip has to be
applied to the solder joint for a slightly longer time.
Soldering irons using a temperature regulator should be set to
about 350 °C.
Caution: The printed pattern (copper foil) may peel away if
the heated tip is applied for too long, so be careful!
· Strong viscosity
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.
· Usable with ordinary solder
It is best to use only unleaded solder but unleaded solder may
also be added to ordinary solder.

RELEASING THE ANTITHEFT LOCK
The disc tray lock function for the antitheft of an demonstration
disc in the store is equipped.

Releasing Procedure:
1. Press the [?/1] button to turn the power on.
2. While pressing the [x] button, press the [Z] button unit "UN-
LOCKED" displayed on the fluorescent indicator tube (around
5 seconds) .

Note: When "LOCKED"is displayed, the disc tray lock is not released by
turning power on/off with the [?/1] button.
