SERVICING PRECAUTIONS
NOTES REGARDING HANDLING OF THE PICK-UP
1. Notes for transport and storage
1) The pick-up should always be left in its conductive bag until immediately prior to use.
2) The pick-up should never be subjected to external pressure or impact.
2. Repair notes
1) The pick-up incorporates a strong magnet, and so should never be brought close to magnetic materials.
2) The pick-up should always be handled correctly and carefully, taking care to avoid external pressure and
impact. If it is subjected to strong pressure or impact, the result may be an operational malfunction
and/or damage to the printed-circuit board.
3) Each and every pick-up is already individually adjusted to a high degree of precision, and for that reason
the adjustment point and installation
screws should absolutely never be touched.
4) Laser beams may damage the eyes!
Absolutely never permit laser beams to enter the eyes!
Also NEVER switch ON the power to the laser output part (lens, etc.) of the pick-up if it is damaged.
5) Cleaning the lens surface
If there is dust on the lens surface, the dust should be cleaned away by using an air bush (such as used
for camera lens). The lens is held by a delicate spring. When cleaning the lens surface, therefore, a cot-
ton swab should be used, taking care not to distort this.
6) Never attempt to disassemble the pick-up.
Spring by excess pressure. If the lens is extremely dirty, apply isopropyl alcohol to the cotton swab. (Do
not use any other liquid cleaners, because they will damage the lens.) Take care not to use too much of
this alcohol on the swab, and do not allow the alcohol to get inside the pick-up.
Storage in conductive bag
NEVER look directly at the laser beam, and don’t let contact
fingers or other exposed skin.

NOTES REGARDING COMPACT DISC PLAYER REPAIRS
1. Preparations
1) Compact disc players incorporate a great many ICs as well as the pick-up (laser diode). These compo-
nents are sensitive to, and easily affected by, static electricity. If such static electricity is high voltage,
components can be damaged, and for that reason components should be handled with care.
2) The pick-up is composed of many optical components and other high-precision components. Care must
be taken, therefore, to avoid repair or storage where the temperature of humidity is high, where strong
magnetism is present, or where there is excessive dust.
2. Notes for repair
1) Before replacing a component part, first disconnect the power supply lead wire from the unit
2) All equipment, measuring instruments and tools must be grounded.
3) The workbench should be covered with a conductive sheet and grounded.
When removing the laser pick-up from its conductive bag, do not place the pick-up on the bag. (This is
because there is the possibility of damage by static electricity.)
4) To prevent AC leakage, the metal part of the soldering iron should be grounded.
5) Workers should be grounded by an armband (1MΩ)
6) Care should be taken not to permit the laser pick-up to come in contact with clothing, in order to prevent
static electricity changes in the clothing to escape from the armband.
7) The laser beam from the pick-up should NEVER be directly facing the eyes or bare skin.

ESD PRECAUTIONS
Electrostatically Sensitive Devices (ESD)
Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be damaged easily by static electricity. Such components com-
monly are called Electrostatically Sensitive Devices (ESD). Examples of typical ESD devices are integrated cir-
cuits and some field-effect transistors and semiconductor chip components. The following techniques should
be used to help reduce the incidence of component damage caused by static electricity.
1. Immediately before handling any semiconductor component or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off
any electrostatic charge on your body by touching a known earth ground. Alternatively, obtain and wear a
commercially available discharging wrist strap device, which should be removed for potential shock reasons
prior to applying power to the unit under test.
2. After removing an electrical assembly equipped with ESD devices, place the assembly on a conductive sur-
face such as aluminum foil, to prevent electrostatic charge buildup or exposure of the assembly.
3. Use only a grounded-tip soldering iron to solder or unsolder ESD devices.
4. Use only an anti-static solder removal device. Some solder removal devices not classified as "anti-static"
can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ESD devices.
5. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ESD
devices.
6. Do not remove a replacement ESD device from its protective package until immediately before you are
ready to install it. (Most replacement ESD devices are packaged with leads electrically shorted together by
conductive foam, aluminum foil or comparable conductive materials).
7. Immediately before removing the protective material from the leads of a replacement ESD device, touch the
protective material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will by installed.
CAUTION : BE SURE NO POWER IS APPLIED TO THE CHASSIS OR CIRCUIT, AND OBSERVE ALL
OTHER SAFETY PRECAUTIONS.
8. Minimize bodily motions when handing unpackaged replacement ESD devices. (Otherwise harmless motion
such as the brushing together of your clothes fabric or the lifting of your foot from a carpeted floor can gen-
erate static electricity sufficient to damage an ESD device).

Important Note: Since the CDR 30 is a dual-deck player/recorder, there are two separate sets of indicators for the Random, Program, Repeat, Repeat
Status, Time, Total Time, Track Time. Play/Pause Indicator and CD Indicators for each deck. As the function of these indicators is identical for both decks,
they are described in this manual with a common letter. When the CDR 30 is playing or recording a disc, any indicators that light on the left side of the
display describe the status of the Play Deck, while those that light on the right side of the display describe the status of the Record Deck. Depending on
the activity of the unit and the settings you select, different indicators may light on the two sides at the same time.
A Random Indicators: These indicators light
when random playback has been programmed
for one of the decks. See page 19 for more
information on random play.

tors display the type of repeat function being
used. See page 19 for more information on
repeat status.
C Program Indicators: These indicators
light when one of the decks is being programmed
for playback options. See page 19 for more
information on programmed play.
D Single/Dual Play Indicators: One of
these indicators will light to indicate the unit’s
playback mode, as selected with the Dual/Single
Play Select Buttons ¸gx. When the
Dual indicator lights, both decks will play
simultaneously to through their respective
analog or digital outputs. When the SINGLE
indicator is lit, only one deck may play at a
time, but the unit will automatically switch
from one side to the other when a deck is
finished playing.
E CDP/CDR Deck Indicator: These indica-
tors show if the Level Indicators G are
showing the output of the record (CDR) or
play (CDP) deck.
F Time/Message Display: This display
shows the play or record time for either deck,
as noted by the various time and mode indica-
tors STUVW. It also displays the CD Text
or MP3 information from a disc and displays
various information, status and error messages.
G Level Indicators: These LEDs display the
input level during a recording, and the output
level during playback. See page 23 for more
information on record levels.
