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.

CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures 
other than those specifi ed herein may result in hazardous radia-
tion exposure.

This label is located on the bottom of the 

chassis.

NOTES  ON  CHIP  COMPONENT  REPLACEMENT

Note 1: Refer to SUPPLEMENT-1 for the MAIN board of printed 

wiring board, schematic diagram and electrical parts list of 
XAV-701BT: E (NTSC) model.

EXT-NAVI board is not installation of XAV-701BT: E 
(NTSC) model.

Note 2: Refer to SUPPLEMENT-2 for DVD mechanism 

deck information of XAV-701BT:E (NTSC) model.

The laser diode in the optical pick-up block may suffer electro-
static break-down because of the potential difference generated by 
the charged electrostatic load, etc. on clothing and the human body.
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 fl exible board is easily damaged and should be handled with 
care.

NOTES  ON  LASER  DIODE  EMISSION  CHECK
The laser beam on this model is concentrated so as to be focused 
on the disc refl ective surface by the objective lens in the optical 
pickup block. Therefore, when checking the laser diode emission, 
observe from more than 30 cm away from the objective lens.

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)

IMPORTANT  NOTE  FOR  REPAIRING (XAV-701BT only)
XAV-701BT contain individual information that the customer reg-
istered because it installs the Bluetooth function.
When repairing, the data that the customer registered might disap-
pear. Have the approval of the customer beforehand.
If any of the following repair is performed, that data disappears.
• 

Complete DISPLAY board exchange

• Initialize

Note: Exchanged old complete DISPLAY board is destroyed with the 

hammer, and throw out it.

NOTE  THE  IC4  AND  IC11  ON  THE  SERVO  BOARD  
REPLACING
IC4 and IC11 on the SERVO board cannot exchange with single. 
When these parts are damaged, exchange the complete mounted 
board.

NOTE  THE  CN101  AND  CN901  ON  THE  MAIN  BOARD  
REPLACING
CN101 and CN901 on the MAIN board cannot exchange with 
single. When these parts are damaged, exchange the complete 
mounted board.

NOTE  FOR  REPLACEMENT  OF  THE  DISPLAY  AND  
KEY7  BOARDS
When repairing, the complete DISPLAY board and complete 
KEY7 board should be replaced since any parts in the DISPLAY 
and KEY7 boards cannot be repaired.

NOTE  THE  CN7301  ON  THE  D-SUB7  BOARD  RE-
PLACING
CN7301 on the D-SUB7 board cannot exchange with single. When 
this part is damaged, exchange the complete mounted board.

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 fl ow) 
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.
