PRECAUTIONS

PORTADISC MDP500 MiniDisc Recorder

The HHB PORTADISC is simple to use but, like all electrical equipment, care must be taken to ensure reliable, safe operation. The following points should always be observed in order to reduce the risk of fire or electric shocks:

Do not expose the recorder to extreme conditions of smoke, water, moisture or excessive vibration.

Do not insert objects (other than MD discs or batteries) or liquids into the recorder.

Do not remove the PORTADISC’s covers (except the battery compartment). This recorder employs a laser and there are no user-serviceable parts inside.

Do not apply pressure or mount heavy objects on the recorder.

Do not drop or apply extreme physical shock to the recorder.

Disconnect the AC adaptor and remove the batteries when cleaning.

Use only specified batteries, the AC adaptor and connection cables.

Turn off the power before connecting the AC adaptor or replacing the batteries.

Please seek qualified service personnel advice if the PORTADISC appears to be operating abnormally. Power down the PORTADISC, disconnect the AC adaptor and remove the batteries if you notice any of the following:

Unusual mechanical noises from the recorder.

Liquid has been spilled into the recorder.

The recorder has been dropped or the casing damaged in any way.
