About the internal/external
hard disk drive
The hard disk drive (internal or external
HDD) is a fragile piece of equipment.
Depending on the conditions under which it
is used, or through careless use, it is
possible that the recorded contents will be
damaged or lost completely, or that normal
playback and recording will not be possible.
Please understand that in the event of repair
or replacement of the HDD or related
components, all your HDD recordings will be
lost.

En
Please use the recorder following the
guidelines below to protect against possible
HDD failure.
The HDD should not be regarded as a place to
store recordings permanently. We
recommend that you back up your important
recordings onto DVD discs in order to protect
against accidental loss.
Pioneer cannot under any circumstances
accept responsibility for any direct or indirect
loss arising from any inconvenience or loss of
recorded material resulting from HDD failure.
• Do not move the recorder while it is on
(this includes during EPG download
when the display shows EPG).
• Install and use the recorder on a stable,
level surface.
• Do not block the rear vent/cooling fan.
• 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
(including during EPG download when
the display shows EPG), 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 POWER OFF is
shown in the display, wait at least two
minutes.
2 Unplug from the wall socket.
3 Move the recorder.
• If there's a power failure while the
recorder is on there is a chance that
some data on the HDD will be lost.
