Operating precautions
OThis unit uses a hard disk drive: prior to operation, save
some data into a part of the memory that is free or load
data from the drive to check that the drive is working
properly.
OSince this unit uses a hard disk drive, it should never be
used when condensation has formed inside.
OIf the unit has not been shut down properly, the data on
its hard disk drive may be destroyed or malfunctioning
may result.
ODo not set the power switch back to the ON position
immediately after it was set to the OFF position. Doing
so may cause malfunctioning.
OAfter operating the unit, ensure that the area around the
air intake openings on the front panel is well-ventilated
and keep it adequately ventilated.
OThe cooling fans at the front and back of the unit are
maintenance parts: replace them at regular intervals.
$DO NOT REMOVE PANEL COVER BY
UNSCREWING.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove
cover. No user serviceable parts inside.
Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
$THIS APPARATUS MUST BE EARTHED
To ensure safe operation the three-pin plug must be
inserted only into a standard three-pin power point
which is effectively earthed through the normal
house-hold wiring.
Extension cords used with the equipment must be
three-core and be correctly wired to provide connec-
tion to earth. Wrongly wired extension cords are a
major cause of fatalities.
The fact that the equipment operates satisfactorily
does not imply that the power point is earthed and
that the installation is completely safe. For your safe-
ty, if in any doubt about the effective earthing of the
power point, consult a qualified electrician.
