(NA6DVD) Panasonic Model Chassis CT-27DC50B AP349 This Service manual is issued as a service guide for the models of the NA6DVD family listed above. Included in this manual are a set of schematic, block diagrams, functional descriptions, alignment procedures, disassembly procedures, and a complete parts list.
Important Safety Notice Special components are used in this television set which are important for safety. These parts are identified on the schematic diagram by the symbol and printed in BOLD TYPE on the replacement part list. It is essential that these critical parts are replaced with the manufacturer’s specified replacement part to prevent X-ray radiation, shock, fire or other hazards.
Service Notes Note: These components are affixed with glue. Be careful not to break or damage any foil under the component or at the pins of the ICs when removing. Usually applying heat to the component for a short time while twisting with tweezers will break the component loose. Leadless Chip Component How to Replace Flat-IC (surface mount)
Service Notes (Continued) IMPORTANT: To protect against possible damage to Equipment needed to check the disabled circuit: the solid state devices due to arcing or static discharge, 1. Voltmeter (0 - 200V scale) make certain that all ground wires and CTR DAG wire are securely connected.

Chassis Service Adjustment Procedures All service adjustments are factory preset and should not require adjustment unless controls and/or associated components are replaced. Note: Connect the (-) lead of the voltmeter to the appropriate ground. Use IC803’s heat sink when the HOT ground symbol ( ) is used.
Purity and Convergence Procedure Adjustment is necessary only if the CRT or the For a 1-piece assembly (see Fig. 21): deflection yoke is replaced or if the setting was Position like tabs of purity devices together at 12 disturbed. The complete procedure consists of: o’clock to reduce any magnetic field effect.
