Hard disk protection
If any hard disk format errors are found when the power is
turned on, the whole hard disk is checked automatically. If any
further problems are found with the hard disk, the POWER
indicator flashes. Please contact the place of purchase if you
need to reformat the hard disk or make backups of any images.
The hard disk is very sensitive to dust, vibration and shocks,
and it should not be used in places near sources of magnetic
fields. Be sure to observe the following points in order to
prevent any loss of data.
Do not subject the digital video recorder to shocks.
Do not use the digital video recorder in places where it will
be subjected to vibration or places which are unstable.
Do not disconnect the power cord while recording or
playback is in progress.
Do not use in places which are subject to rapid changes in
temperature (changes of around 10°C in an hour).
If the digital video recorder is moved to a place with a large
difference in temperature or a high level of humidity,
condensation may form. If the digital video recorder is used
with condensation inside it, operating problems may occur.
Do not install the digital video recorder in places which are
constantly vibrating, such as vehicles or trains.
The hard disk and cooling fan are
consumables.
These parts should generally be replaced after 2 years of
use (for the hard disk) or 3 years of use (for the cooling fan)
at normal temperatures of 25°C. These periods of time are
intended as guides only, and are not a guarantee of product
performance.
For important recordings
Always check whether a recording has been recorded
properly.
In case a recording was not recorded properly with this
because of faulty connections with other equipment or a
correct playback is not possible, any claims for
compensation will be declined.
For important recordings, it is recommended to make a
periodical backup copy for protection against loss from any
malfunction or accident.

Notes on handling internal hard disk drive
components
This unit has a built-in hard disk drive (HDD).
Be sure to observe the following points carefully when operating,
setting-up and servicing the unit.
1
Do not subject the unit to shocks or vibration.
If the unit is subjected to shocks or vibration, it may damage the
HDD or cause corruption of the data stored in the HDD.
Do not move the unit while the power is turned on. Always be
sure to turn off the power before removing the unit from or
placing it onto the rack.
When transporting the unit, pack it securely using the specified
packing materials. In addition, use a method of transportation
that minimizes vibration.
When placing the unit down on a surface such as a floor,
attach the specified feet to the base of the unit and place it
down gently. If the feet are not attached, place the unit down
very carefully so that it does not make any noise.
2
Do not move the unit for 30 seconds after turning off the
power.
After the power is turned off, the disk inside the HDD will continue
to spin for a brief period due to inertia, and the heads will be in an
unstable state.
During this time, the unit is even more susceptible to shocks and
vibration than when power is being supplied. Make sure that the
unit is not subjected to even gentle vibration for at least 30
seconds after turning off the power.
3
Do not operate the unit when condensation has formed.
If the unit is operated when condensation has formed, it may
cause operating problems.
If sudden changes in the ambient temperature occur, wait for the
temperature to stabilize before operating the unit.

Notes when replacing the HDD
Be sure to follow the correct replacement procedure when
replacing the HDD.
HDDs that have been removed from their packaging may not
operate correctly if they are subjected to any shocks or
vibration. It is recommended that you place the HDD onto a
soft, level surface with the printed circuit board facing upward
after unpacking it.
Be careful not to subject the HDD to shocks or vibration when
removing and tightening screws as part of the HDD
replacement procedure. Make sure that all screws are
tightened securely so that they will not become loose.
The HDD is sensitive to static electricity, so you should take
proper precautions to prevent static electricity buildup.
5
Handling the HDD unit by itself
If transporting or storing the HDD unit by itself, always be sure to
pack it in the specified packaging first.
In addition, use a method of transportation that minimizes vibration.
If the HDD becomes damaged, handle the unit and the damaged
HDD that has been removed in order for it to be replaced carefully
to prevent the problem from being aggravated until as the nature
of the problem can be checked and analyzed.
