Cleaning discs

Some problems occur because the disc
inside the recorder is dirty (frozen picture,
sound disruptions, picture distortions.) To
avoid these problems, discs should be
cleaned on a regular basis.
To clean a disc, use a micro fi bre cleaning
cloth and wipe the disc from the center
to the edge in a straight line.
CAUTION!
Do not use solvents such as benzene,
thinner, commercially available cleaners,
or anti-static sprays intended for discs.
HDD (Hard Disk Drive)
handling care
The HDD is a fragile piece of device that
is easily prone to damage due to its long
recording capacity and high speed
operation.
– Do not move the unit while it is
turned on.
– Do not remove the AC power plug
from the power outlet during operation.
– Do not use the unit in excessively hot
or humid places. It may cause
condensation to form inside the unit.
If the HDD fails, playback and recording
will not be possible. In this case, it will be
necessary to replace the HDD unit.
WARNING!
The HDD is not a device for storing
recorded content permanently. We
recommend that you copy the important
video content to a recordable DVD as
backup.
