Handling of the internal disk drive
• When this device is moved to a location where the temperature is
radically different, water droplets may condense on the internal
disk drive. If the device is used in this condition, it may
malfunction, so please allow several hours to pass before
operating the device.
• Do not turn the power on and off repeatedly. This may damage
the KRONOS.
• This device begins to access the internal disk drive immediately
after the power is turned on.
• Never turn off the power while the internal disk drive is being
accessed. Doing so can cause data on the disk to be lost, so that
the next time the KRONOS is turned on, it may fail to start up
normally.
Regarding the LCD screen
The KRONOS LCD screen is a precision device, and careful
attention has been paid to its product quality. Although you may
notice some of the issues listed below, please be aware that these are
due to the characteristics of LCD screens, and are not malfunctions.
• There may be pixels in the screen that are always dark (unlit) or
always bright (lit).
• Depending on the displayed content, the brightness of the screen
may appear uneven.
• Depending on the displayed content, horizontal stripes of shading
may be visible.
• Depending on the displayed content, flickering or moire patterns
may be visible.
