1. ! Do Not use paper towels, any type of abrasive pad, rags, rubber or vinyl materials to clean the screen. Using these materials
could easily scratch the screen which may result in permanent damage.
2. ! Do Not use any cleaning product containing alkaline/acid cleaner, scouring powder, or volatile solvent, such as alcohol, ammonia,
benzene, thinner or insecticide. Using any of these harsh cleaners may result in permanent damage to the screen.
3. ! Do Not spray water or detergent directly onto the TV screen . If liquid drips into the bottom of the screen it may cause a failure.

CUIDADO COM A SEGURANA
TENHA CUIDADO AO MANUSEAR O PAINEL LCD

When repairing the LCD panel, be sure you are grounded by using a wrist band.
When installing the LCD panel on a wall, the LCD panel must be secured using the 4 mounting holes on the rear cover.
1. Do not press on the panel or frame edge to avoid the risk of electric shock.
2. Do not scratch or press on the panel with any sharp objects.
3. Do not leave the module in high temperatures or in areas of high humidity for an extended period of time.
4. Do not expose the LCD panel to direct sunlight.
5. Avoid contact with water. It may cause a short circuit within the module.
6. Disconnect the AC power when replacing the backlight or inverter circuit.
(High voltage occurs at the inverter circuit at 650Vrms.)
7. Always clean the LCD panel with a soft cloth material.
8. Use care when handling the wires or connectors of the inverter circuit. Damaging the wires may cause a short.
9. Protect the panel from ESD to avoid damaging the electronic circuit (C-MOS).
10. During the repair, DO NOT leave the Power On for more than 1 hour while the TV is face down on a cloth.
KDL-32CX525/40CX525/46CX525 4
VERIFICAO DE SEGURANA
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 touching high-wattage resistors.
3. Check that all control knobs, shields, covers, ground straps, and mounting hardware have been replaced. Be absolutely certain that
you have replaced all the insulators.
4. Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly transistors, that were installed during a previous repair. Point them out to the
customer and recommend their replacement.
5. Look for parts which, though functioning, show obvious signs of deterioration. Point them out to the customer and recommend their
replacement.
6. Check the line cords for cracks and abrasion. Recommend the replacement of any such line cord to the customer.
7. Check the antenna terminals, metal trim, metallized knobs, screws, and all other exposed metal parts for AC leakage. Check leakage
as described below.
KDL-32CX525/40CX525/46CX525 5
TESTE DE FUGA
To Exposed Metal
The AC leakage from any exposed metal part to earth ground and from all Parts on Set
exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part having a return to chassis, must
not exceed 0.5 mA(500 microamperes). Leakage current can be measured by
any one of three methods.
AC
1. A commercial leakage tester, such as the Simpson 229 or RCA WT- 0.15 F Voltmete r
(0.75V)
540A. Follow the manufacturers instructions to use these instructions.
2. A battery-operated AC milliampmeter. The Data Precision 245 digital
multimeter is suitable for this job.
3. Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of a VOM or Earth Ground
battery-operated AC voltmeter. The limit indication is 0.75 V, so analog
meters must have an accurate low voltage scale.
4. The Simpsons 250 and Sanwa SH-63TRD are examples of passive Figure A. Using an AC voltmeter to check AC leakage.
VOMs that are suitable. Nearly all battery-operated digital multimeters
that have a 2 VAC range are suitable (see Figure A).
COMO ENCONTRAR UM BOM ATERRAMENTO

A cold-water pipe is a guaranteed earth ground; the cover-plate retaining screw
on most AC outlet boxes is also at earth ground.
Trouble Light
If the retaining screw is to be used as your earth ground, verify that it is at ground Ohmmeter
by measuring the resistance between it and a cold-water pipe with an ohmmeter. AC Outlet Box
The reading should be zero ohms.
If a cold-water pipe is not accessible, connect a 60-to 100-watt trouble-light (not
a neon lamp) between the hot side of the receptacle and the retaining screw. Try Cold-water Pipe
both slots, if necessary, to locate the hot side on the line; the lamp should light at
normal brilliance if the screw is at ground potential (see Figure B).

Although standards are detailed for each of these protocols, the real
