Precautions
• Do not wrap the unit or accessories in cloth or similar materials.
• Do not allow dust to build up on the unit.
• Do not place the unit in locations of poor ventilation, such as small, enclosed areas, directly against a
wall or on a thick carpet or bedding.
• When attaching the unit to a rack, leave at least 10 cm (3.94 in) of space behind the vent and prevent
cables from blocking the air flow as much as possible.
• Do not expose the unit to dust, smoke or steam.
• Do not allow liquid or small particles to get into the unit.
• Do not put heavy objects on the unit.
• Do not use damaged, reshaped or repaired discs.
• Do not touch or insert foreign objects into the connectors of the unit or accessories.
• Do not insert cords and cables at an angle. Doing so may damage the connector pins or create the risk of
fire.
• If a spring or screw is provided to secure a cable connector, use the provided spring or screw to secure
it. Take care to prevent making faulty connections.
• Always have two or more persons operate when carrying, positioning, attaching the stand or arranging
on the rack.
• Be careful when ejecting a disc or the HDD. The disc or HDD may pop out suddenly.
• Back up recorded media or HDD data in advance to prevent loss of important data.
• When attaching or detaching the rack from the unit, if steps are not taken to prevent accidental falling or
moving, the unit can drop or move unexpectedly and cause injury. Work from a stable position and use
extra caution when handling the unit. Also, check that the rack has been set up properly and is strong
enough to hold the unit.
AC power cord use
• To help ensure safe operation, during initial setup and regularly thereafter, inspect the AC power cord.
If damaged, stop use immediately and call the number on the back cover for assistance.
• Do not use AC power cords other than those provided or designated in the instruction manual. If the
provided or designated power cord is not used, electrical shock may result or the unit may not operate.
• Do not modify or damage the AC power cord.
• Do not forcibly bend the AC power cord.
• Do not place heavy objects on the AC power cord.
• Check that there is no dust or lint on the power plug before inserting into an electrical outlet. If the plug
becomes dirty, wipe it off with a dry cloth before connecting.
• When inserting the AC power cord into an electrical outlet, insert the plug straight into the electrical
outlet and not at an angle.
• Unplug the AC power cord from the electrical outlet before cleaning or moving the unit, or when you do
not intend to use the unit for an extended period of time. When disconnecting, grasp the power cord by
the plug and pull straight out of the electrical socket. Never pull by the cord and do not pull out at an
angle.
• Do not touch the plug of the AC power cord with wet hands.
• Do not touch the power plug during an electrical storm.
• Do not touch the unit for extended periods of time while the unit is turned on, as extended contact may
cause low-temperature burns.
• Immediately after disconnecting the AC power cord, do not touch the plug on the AC power cord or the
metal parts of the AC IN connector. Doing so could lead to electric shock.
Cleaning
• For safety reasons, before cleaning the unit or connected accessories, 1) turn off the unit, 2) disconnect
the power plug for the unit from the electrical outlet.
