Unit care
HDD/USB HDD handling care
When moving the unit
• 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.
This unit cannot save (backup) the HDD titles to
media. You have to be very careful when
handling the unit and editing the title.
1 Switch the unit to standby mode. (Wait until
“BYE” disappears from the display.)
2 Remove the AC mains lead from the
household mains socket.
3 Move only after the unit has come to a
complete stop (approx. 3 minutes) in order to
avoid subjecting to vibration and shock. (Even
after the unit is switched to standby mode, the
HDD continues operating for a short time.)
• If the HDD or USB 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.
• The unit may breakdown if cigarette smoke
or bug spray/vapour, etc. gets inside the
unit.
Cleaning
• Wipe with a soft, dry cloth.
• Never use alcohol, paint thinner or benzine to
clean this unit.
• Before using chemically treated cloth, carefully
read the instructions that came with the cloth.
When requesting this unit for repair
The registration of the USB HDD may be
cancelled in the process of repairing this unit.
You can use the USB HDD again by
re-registering, but all recorded content already on
the USB HDD will be lost. In such cases, the
recorded content (data) cannot be recovered.
To dispose or transfer this unit
This unit may contain private information. Before
disposing of or transferring this unit, perform the
following to delete the data, including personal or
secret information:
- Format HDD (> 66, 70)
- Perform “Shipping Condition” (> 66, 77)
