Hard disk drive precautions
The hard disk has a high storage density which enables long recording duration and quick access to the written data. However, it can easily be damaged by shock, vibration or dust, and should be kept away from magnets. To avoid losing important data, observe the following precautions.
•Do not allow the recorder to receive a strong shock.
•Do not place the recorder in a location subject to mechanical vibrations or in an unstable location.
•Do not move the recorder with its main power cord connected, or any other cords.
•Do not use the recorder in a place subject to extreme changes in temperature (temperature gradient greater than 10° C/hour).
•Do not attempt to change the hard disk. This may result in a malfunction and will void your warranty.
•You cannot recover lost data if the hard disk is damaged. It is recommended that you use the hard disk as a temporary storage space and dub important data to a DVD or VCR for backup. Note that any recordings made cannot be compensated for should the hard disk drive malfunction.
CAUTION: Unplug the AC power cord from the outlet and then wait 30 seconds before moving the HD DVR in any way. The HD DVR can record programming even when in power off/standby mode and the spinning hard drive could be damaged by movement.
