About the external hard disk
drive
The hard disk drive (HDD) is a fragile piece of
equipment. Please use the player following the
guidelines below to protect against possible
HDD failure.
• Do not move the player while it is on.
• Do not use the damaged HDD. Product can be
damaged.
• Install and use a recorder on a stable, level
surface.
• Do not use the recorder in excessively hot or
humid places, or in places that may be subject
to sudden changes in temperature. Sudden
changes in temperature can cause condensation
to form inside the recorder. This can be a cause of
HDD failure.
• While the recorder is switched on, do not unplug
from the wall socket or switch the electricity off
from the breaker switch.
• Do not move the recorder immediately after
switching it off. If you need to move the recorder,
please follow the steps below:
1. After the message “OFF” is shown in the
display, wait at least two minutes.
2. Unplug from the wall socket.
3. Move the player.
• If there’s a power failure while the recorder is on,
there is a chance that some data on the HDD will
be lost.
• The HDD is very delicate. If used improperly or
in an unsuitable environment, it is possible that
the HDD will fail after a few years of use. Signs
of problems include playback unexpectedly
freezing and noticeable block noise (mosaic) in
the picture.
However, sometimes there will be no warning
signs of HDD failure.
• If the HDD fails, playback of recorded material will
not be possible. In this case it will be necessary to
replace the HDD.
• The manufacturer disclaims responsibility for loss
of data contained in HDD.
