BEFORE REPLACING THE OPTICAL PICK-UP BLOCK
Please be sure to check thoroughly the parameters as par the OOptical
Pick-Up Block Checking Procedures� (Part No.: 9-960-027-11)
issued separately before replacing the optical pick-up block.

LASER DIODE AND FOCUS SEARCH OPERATION
CHECK
During normal operation of the equipment, emission of the laser
diode is prohibited unless the upper lid is closed while turning ON
the S809. (push switch type)
The following checking method for the laser diode is operable.IC801
Y Method:
Emission of the laser diode is visually checked.
SL801
1. Open the upper lid.(TEST)
2. With a disc not set, turn on the S809 with a screwdriver having a
thin tip as shown in Fig.1.
3. Press the u button.
4. Observing the objective lens, check that the laser diode emits
light.
When the laser diode does not emit light, automatic power control
circuit or optical pickup is faulty.
In this operation, the objective lens will move up and down 4
times along with inward motion for the focus search.
