Handling of HDD
∫Do not expose the HDD to vibrations and shocks.
Due to the environment and handling conditions, the HDD may be subject to partial damages or may not be able to read, record, and play back data. Do not expose the unit to vibrations or shock, and do not turn off the power during recording or playback.
If the unit is used in a place with loud sounds, such as a club or venue, the recording may stop due to sound vibrations. Recording data on an SD card is recommended in these places.
∫Back up data periodically.
The HDD is temporary storage. In order to avoid erasing data due to static electricity, electromagnetic waves, breakage, and failures, back up the data to a PC or DVD disc. (l 100, 112)
∫If the HDD experiences any abnormality, back up data immediately.
Failure in the HDD may produce continuous noise or choppy sound during recording or playing back. Continuous use will cause further deterioration, and may eventually disable the HDD. If these phenomena are observed, copy the data on the HDD to a PC, a DVD disc etc. immediately and contact your dealer.
Once the HDD is out of order, data cannot be restored.
∫Operation may stop in hot or cold environments.
The unit is disabled in order to protect the HDD.
∫Do not use the unit in low atmospheric pressures.
The HDD may fail if it is used at altitudes of 3000 m or higher above sea level.
∫Transportation
When the unit is transported, turn off the power and be careful not to shake, fall, or impact the unit.
