How to Discharge the Capacitor on Flash P.C.B.
CAUTION:
1. Be sure to discharge the capacitor on FLASH P.C.B..
2. Be careful of the high voltage circuit on FLASH P.C.B. when servicing.
Discharging Procedure
1. Refer to the disassemble procedure and Remove the necessary parts/unit.
2. Put the insulation tube onto the lead part of Resistor (ERG5SJ102:1kΩ /5W).
(an equivalent type of resistor may be used.)
3. Put the resistor between both terminals of capacitor on FLASH P.C.B. for approx. 5 seconds.
4. After discharging confirm that the capacitor voltage is lower than 10V using a voltmeter.

How to Replace the Lithium Battery
Replacement Procedure
1. Remove the MIC AMP P.C.B.. (Refer to Disassembly Procedures.)
2. Remove the Lithium battery (Ref. No. “B6401” at component side of MIC AMP P.C.B.) and then replace it into new one.

NOTE:
This Lithium battery is a critical component.
(Type No.: ML-614S/ZTK )
It must never be subjected to excessive heat or discharge.
It must therefore only be fitted in requirement designed specifically for its use.
Replacement batteries must be of same type and manufacture.
They must be fitted in the same manner and location as the original battery, with the correct polarity contacts observed.
Do not attempt to re-charge the old battery or re-use it for any other purpose.
It should be disposed of in waste products destined for burial rather than incineration.

How to Define the Model Suffix (NTSC or PAL model)

There are seven kinds of HDC-SDT750/TMT750.
a) HDC-SDT750PP
b) HDC-SDT750EB/EF/EG/EP
c) HDC-SDT750EE
d) HDC-TMT750GT
e) HDC-TMT750GK
f) HDC-TMT750GD
g) HDC-SDT750GC, TMT750GC
What is the difference is that the “INITIAL SETTING” data which is stored in Flash ROM mounted on Main P.C.B..

NOTE:
After replacing the MAIN P.C.B., be sure to achieve adjustment.
The adjustment instruction is available at “software download” on the “Support Information from NWBG/VDBG-AVC” web-site in
“TSN system”, together with Maintenance software.
