For important recordings

zAlways make a test recording beforehand to check that the digital video recorder’s playback is normal.

zNote that no compensation will be provided for losses due to recording or playback problems arising from problems with the digital video recorder or its connected devices during operation.

zTo be prepared for malfunctions or accidents, back up important recordings periodically, or record using mirroring.

Hard disk protection

The hard disk is checked automatically at power ON. If a hard disk problem is found, the POWER indicator flashes. If you need to initialize the disk or save images stored on the disk, contact a Sanyo Authorized Service Center.

Care

zTo clean the digital video recorder, unplug the power plug from the wall outlet and wipe the unit lightly with a soft cloth.

zTo remove heavy grime, wipe the digital video recorder with a well-wrung cloth soaked in a solution of water and neutral detergent, and then wipe it with a dry cloth.

zDo not clean the unit with benzine or paint thinner. Doing so may break down the finish or strip the paint.

zWhen using a chemical cloth, be sure to follow the precautions provided with it.

zDo not spray insecticide or other volatile chemicals on the cabinet. Do not allow rubber or vinyl products to come into contact with the digital video recorder for extended periods.

Doing so may break down the finish or strip the paint.

During extended disuse

Extended disuse may cause problems in functions, so turn the power ON and operate the unit occasionally during such periods.

Backup battery

The digital video recorder comes with a built-in lithium battery. When the digital video recorder has been connected to a wall outlet for at least 48 hours and the date and time have been set, the clock function will continue to operate for up to 30 days after the power plug is disconnected.

When disposing of the digital video recorder, contact a Sanyo Authorized Service Center for information on how to dispose of the lithium battery.
