Panasonic SG-D16 - PROTECTION CIRCUITRY; BEFORE REPAIR AND ADJUSTMENT; DISASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS; How to remove the cartridge

Mi PROTECTION CIRCUITRY
The protection circuitry may have operated if either of
the following condition is noticed:
eNo sound is heard when the power is turned on:
eSound stops during a performance.
The function of this circuitry is to prevent circuitry
damage if, for example, the positive and negative
speaker connection wires are ‘‘shorted’’, or if speaker
systems with an impedance less than the indicated
rated impedance of the amplifier are used.
lM BEFORE REPAIR AND ADJUSTMENT
If this occurs, follow the procedure outlined below.
1. Turn off the power.
2. Determine the cause of the problem and correct it.
3. Turn on the power once again.
Note:
When the protection circuitry functions, the unit will
not operated unless the power is first turned off and
then on again.
Disconnect AC power, Discharge Power Supply Capacitors C701 through a 10Q, 5W resistor to ground.
DO NOT SHORT-CIRCUIT DIRECTLY (with a screwdriver blade, for instance), as this may distroy solid state devices.
After repairs are completed, restore power gradually using a variac, to avoid overcurrent.
Current consumption at 120V, 60Hz in NO SIGNAL mode should be 70~140mA.
