Handling your HDD
Liability for recorded data
Panasonic is in no way liable for
direct or indirect problems resulting
in the loss of recordings or edited
content (data) and does not
guarantee the error-free functioning
of the recorded or edited content.
This also applies to the servicing of
the unit (also applies to components
that are not connected to the HDD).
During operation
Do not expose your HDD to jolts and vibrations.
This can damage the HDD.
Do not unplug or turn off the power during operation.
The HDD spins at a very high speed.
Sounds or movements are normal due to the rotational speed.
If you want to transport the unit
Switch the unit off. (Wait until "BYE" disappears from the display.)
Unplug the unit.
Note that the HDD continues to run for a short period of time after the unit has been switched
off. Only transport the unit if the HDD has come to a complete stop (after approx. 2 minutes) to
prevent damage from vibrations and jolts.
Remaining recording time on the HDD
This unit records with a VBR (Variable bit rate) data compression system. This means that the
length of the programmed recording is variably adjusted based on the video data to be recorded.
Thus, there may be differences in the display of the remaining recording time and the remaining
recording length.
If there is not enough storage space for a recording, delete old titles from the HDD to free up
storage space for a recording. (The deletion of playlists does not increase the storage space!)
"HDD SLP (SLEEP)" appears in the display
Your HDD automatically went into SLEEP mode. When the unit is switched on, the HDD spins at a
high speed. To extend the lifetime of the HDD, it goes into SLEEP mode if no function is called for
more than 30 minutes and there is no disc in the DVD drive.
Press HDD to activate it.
If the HDD is in SLEEP mode, it needs a short period to power up. Thus, recordings or
playbacks do not start right away.
Please always remove discs from the HDD when you are not using the unit so that the HDD will
go into SLEEP mode.
