HDD handling care

The HDD is a high precision device The HDD is a high precision recording instrument and is easily susceptible to damage. Therefore, be careful of the following points while the unit is turned on, especially during operation, otherwise the HDD and the recorded content may be damaged:

-Do not subject the unit to any vibration and shock.

-Do not remove the AC mains lead from the household mains socket.

The HDD is a temporary storage device

• The HDD is not an everlasting storage device. It is recommended to save the recorded content on a disc or to keep the original data or CDs that they were copied from.

• If you notice a problem with the HDD such as repetitive strange sounds, immediately save (backup) all content and request service. If you continue using the HDD with a problem, the unit or the recorded content will be damaged.

If the HDD is damaged, the recorded content cannot be recovered.

Setup precautions

Place the unit on a surface that is flat and not subject to vibration or impact.

Do not place on anything that generates heat like a Set Top Box, etc.

Place in an area where condensation does not occur. Conditions where condensation may occur

-When there is an extreme change in temperature (e.g., when subjected to an air conditioner or when cooled air directly impacts the unit).

-When there is high humidity or a lot of steam in the room.

In the above situation, without turning the unit on, let the unit adjust to the room temperature and wait 2–3 hours until condensation is gone.

Do not block the cooling fan on the rear of the unit.

The unit may breakdown if cigarette smoke or bug spray/vapour, etc. gets inside the unit.
