Sony RDR-HXD890 Operating Instructions Manual page 4

Copy guard function
Since the recorder has a copy
guard function, programmes
received through an external
tuner (not supplied) may
contain copy protection signals
(copy guard function) and as
such may not be recordable,
depending on the type of signal.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Caution: This recorder is
capable of holding a still
video image or on-screen
display image on your
television screen
indefinitely. If you leave the
still video image or on-
screen display image
displayed on your TV for an
extended period of time you
risk permanent damage to
your television screen.
Plasma display panels and
projection televisions are
especially susceptible to this.
If you have any questions or
problems concerning your
recorder, please consult your
nearest Sony dealer.
