Before Requesting A/S Service

It is required for users to back up important data regularly from the storage device (to other separate media). Depending on the situation, it will be necessary to delete the data from the internal storage device (component). It might be necessary to delete all the data from the product for A/S Service. So it is required for users to back up important data by themselves before requesting

A/S Service. For all A/S services, it is assumed that the user has already backed up their data, so there is no additional back-up process. Therefore, it is important to note that we will not be held responsible for any data lost during A/S service.
