CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS CONCERNING SAFETY FOR HANDLING THE MONITORS

 

Before handling the monitors, be sure to read the following explanations and comply with the caution/ warning instructions given below. Note that the caution/warning symbol marks and letters are used in the instructions.

Indicates that handling the monitors erroneously by disregarding this warning may cause a potentially hazardous situation, which could result in death or serious injury.

Indicates that handling the monitors by disregarding this caution may cause a potentially hazardous situation, which could result in personal injury and/or material damage.

Indicates that access to a specifc part of tbe equipment is forbidden.

Indicates the instruction to disconnect a power connector or plug.

When performing such work as installing and removing the monitor, inserting and disconnecting the extemal connectors to and from the monitor and its interior, be sure to disconnect the power connector (plug) before beginning the work. Proceeding the work without following this instruction may result in shock or malfunctioning.

Using the monitor by converting it without obtaining prior permission is not allowed. SEGA shall not be liable for any malfunctioning and accidents caused by this conversion.

Primary side and Secondary side The monitor's circuit, which is divided into the Primary side and Secondary side, is insulated. Do not touch the primary side, and do not touch both sides simultaneously. Not following this instruction can cause a very dangerous shock. When making monitor adjustments, use a non-conductive driver and make adjustments without touching any part othor than the Adjustment V.R. and knob. Also, be sure not to cause a short circuit to the Primary side and Secondary side. If short-circuited, it may cause a dangerous shock or malfunctioning.

High-tension Voltage Some of the parts inside the monitor are subject to high-tension voltage in excess of 20,000 volts. Therefore, be sure not to touch the monitor's interior. Should soldering, paper wastes, etc. fall into the monitor interior, turn the power off so as not to cause a malfunctioning or fire hazard.

Connecting the CRT and PCB For combining tbe CRT and PCB, use the specified part No. to maintain the status of adjustments made at the factory. The anode of the CRT itself wil1 be accumulatively charged as time elapses, generating dangeous high-tension voltage. The monitor should be used with the Chassis, CRT and PCB. When repair, etc. is required at the time of malfunctioning, be sure to send it in an "as assembled" condition. If these are disassembled, what has been charged with high-tension voltage may be discharged, causing a very hazardous situation. Therefore, under no circumstances should it be disassembled.

Static Electricity Touching the CRT surface sometimes causes you to feel slight electricity. This is because thc CRT surfaces are subject to static; this will not adversely affect the human body.

Installation and removal Ensure that the Magnetizer Coil, FBT (Fly-Back-Transformer), Anode Lead and Focus Lead are not positioned close to the sheet metal work's sharp edges, etc. and avoid damaging the insulated portions so as not to cause shock and malfunctioning.
