A note about using this video device

Some people subjected to stimulation by intense light or rapidly flashing images may experience symptoms of temporary muscle spasms or loss of consciousness. If you experience any such symptoms, stop using this device immediately and seek medical attention.

In particular when using this device in a public place or other location where there are large numbers of people, you must take into account people other than the operator, and avoid creating and displaying continuous suc- cessions of images that might produce this type of intense stimulation.

Korg Corporation accepts no responsibility for any health problem or personal or property damage that may occur to the operator or observers from use of this device in violation of this warning.

About your data

The contents of memory may be lost if an unexpected malfunction occurs, so be sure to make a backup of any important data. Korg Corporation can take no responsibility for any damages due to loss of data.

Handling of the internal hard disk

Do not apply physical shock to this device. In particular, you must never move this device or apply physical shock while the power is turned on. This can cause part or all of the data on disk to be lost, or may damage the hard disk or interior components.

When this device is moved to a location where the temperature is radically different, water droplets may condense on the hard disk. If the device is used in this condition, it may malfunction, so please allow several hours to pass before operating the device.

Do not repeatedly turn the power on/off. This may damage the kaptivator.

This device begins to access the hard disk immediately after the power is turned on.

Never turn off the power while the BUSY indicator is lit or blinking. Doing so can cause all or part of the data on hard disk to be lost, or may cause malfunctions such as hard disk damage.

If the hard disk has been damaged due to incorrect operation, power failure, or accidental interruption of the power supply, a fee may be charged for replacement even if this device is still within its warranty period.
