Safety information6

If you require any technical guidance or find that your TV is not operating as intended, a simple solution can often be found in the Troubleshooting section of these instructions,

Power Safety

Power source

• Always use the provided AC adaptor.

• Operate only from the power source specified on
the AC adaptor.

• The power adaptor may become hot during normal
operation. This is not a malfunction.

• Please make sure that the adaptor is not covered
while in operation. Leave a space of 15 cm
(minimum) around the AC adaptor.

• The rating information and safety caution of the AC
adaptor are provided on the adaptor.

WARNING: When the set-top box is not in use for a
long time, disconnect it from the power.

Power Cord

• Do not place the unit, a piece of furniture, etc., on
the power cord, or pinch the cord.

• Handle the power cord by the plug. Do not pull out
the plug by tugging the cord.

• Never touch the power cord when your hands are
wet as this could cause a short circuit or electric
shock.

• Never make a knot in the cord or tie it with other
cords.

• The power cords should be routed in such a way
that they are not likely to be stepped on.

• A damaged power cord can cause fire or give you
an electrical shock.

• Check the power cord once in a while. When you
find it damaged, ask closest service agent for help.

• Please do not place the set in a place subject to
direct sun light, excessive dust or mechanical shock
or in a location near heat sources.

• The device should be placed on a solid and safe
base.

• Do not place the apparatus on a soft surface such
as a rug that might block the ventilation holes on
the bottom.

• The selected location should not have a high
humidity. Condensation, that may arise in a kitchen
for example, may cause a malfunction or damage
the device.

• Heating or other thermal radiation under the set
also may cause malfunction or damage the device.

• The hot air, which arises during operation, should
be ventilated with sufficient air circulation. Please
do not put the device into closed areas and do not
cover it.

• Please avoid contact of the device with water or
humidity. Do not put into operation near bath,
swimming pools.

• Take care to provide good air circulation. Place the
device in a location with adequate ventilation to
prevent heat build-up in the device.

• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet,
unplug the device and have it checked by qualified
personnel before operating it any further.

• The device should not be exposed to dripping or
splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as
vases, shall be placed on the device.

Batteries

Batteries shall not be exposed to excessive heat, for
example sunshine or fire.

Connection to a Television Distribution
System (Cable TV etc.) from Tuner

Device connected to the protective earthing
of the building installation through the mains
connection or through other apparatus with a
connection to protective earthing-and to a television
distribution system using coaxial cable, may in some
circumstances create a fire hazard.

Connection to a cable distribution system has therefore
to be provided through a device providing electrical
isolation below a certain frequency range (galvanic
isolator, see EN 60728-11).

Hard Disk Safety

This Recorder has a built in hard disk (abbreviated
as HDD ) for recording and playback. Beware of
the following points when setting up and using the
Recorder. Failure to observe precautions may cause
damage to the HDD itself or its content, failure of the
disk to operate, or recording of noise.

• Do not subject the Recorder to any vibration or
impact.

• Do not place the Recorder in a cramped location
which might block the ventilation port on the back
of the Recorder.

• Do not place the Recorder in a location with severe
temperature variation.

• If the Recorder is set up in a location with severe
temperature variation, dew may form on and inside
the Recorder. If the Recorder is used with internal
dew formation present, this may cause HDD
damage or malfunction. We recommend keeping
variation in room temperature within 10˚C per hour.

• Do not place the Recorder in a location with high
humidity.

• Place the Recorder horizontally, never at an incline.

• Do not place a magnetic device (magnet etc.) close
to the recorder.

• When the power is on, do not unplug the AC
adaptor from the AC outlet, turn off the breaker for
the area where the Recorder is set up, or move the
Recorder.

• When moving the Recorder, first turn off the power
and then unplug the power cord from the AC
outlet.

Note: If a message indicating an HDD error is displayed
(such as ERROR IN HDD. CANNOT OPERATE.) and
the HDD has malfunctioned, you cannot replace the
HDD by yourself. If you disassemble the Recorder, the
warranty will become void. Also, recovery of data is
impossible.

Safe Use of the Equipment

This equipment has been designed and manufactured
to meet international safety standards but, like any
electrical equipment, care must be taken if you are to
obtain the best results and to ensure its safety.

DO read the operating instructions before you attempt

Switch off and remove the mains plug before making
or changing connections.

DO consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about
the installation, operation or safety of your equipment.

DO be careful with glass panels or doors on
equipment.

DO route the mains lead so that it is not likely to be
walked on, crushed, chafed, or subjected to excessive
wear and tear or heat.

DON’T remove any fixed cover as this may expose
dangerous voltages.

DON’T obstruct the ventilation openings of the
equipment with items such as newspapers, tablecloths,
curtains, etc. Overheating will cause damage and
shorten the life of the equipment.

Hard Disk

Recording Format

HDD recording is done using the variable bit rate format (VBR) for more efficient recording. The following
phenomena may occur.

With the variable bit rate format, the remaining amount which can be recorded may increase or decrease relative
to the display of the remaining amount of HDD space.

When the display indicates that the remaining amount of HDD space is low, first delete unnecessary programmes,
and then record with an extra margin in the amount of remaining space. There is an option in the configuration
menu to discard the recordings.

You can choose between three options:

Deleting:

1 – Oldest recordings

2 – Largest recordings

3 – Shortest recordings

When the HDD is out of space, it will operate regarding one of these options and delete the recordings.

Even if you delete a programme, the remaining amount may not increase by the amount of deleted time. When
recording new video, record with an extra margin in the amount of remaining space.

Unrecordable Material

In the unlikely event that there is some problem like loss of recorded video or audio content due to an HDD
malfunction, please be aware beforehand that we will bear no responsibility to compensate for the content which
could not be recorded or edited, for the loss of recorded or edited video, or for other related direct or indirect
damages.

If a power failure occurs

• The content being recorded or timer recorded may be damaged if power failure occurs.

• The content being played back may be damaged.

Hard Disk Operation (Recording / Playback / Time Shift Recording)

If the Recorder is used in a cold location (a location at low temperature), the drive will only allow live viewing
after power is turned on until the HDD is ready. During this time, the Recorder will not allow Time Shift Viewing,
recording, display of recording lists or playback of recorded programmes. Please wait until the HDD is ready.
