recorder.
POWER SOURCE
You should only plug the appliance into a 100V to 240VAC, 50Hz supply.
Safety considerations
Position the power supply lead and other leads so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by things
placed on or against them.
Do not use the appliance in humid or damp conditions. Do not allow the appliance to get wet, i.e. dripping or
splashing, as this may be dangerous. Do not place water filled object, such as vases, on top of the appliance.
Make sure that no naked flame sources, such as candles, are placed on top of the appliance.
Cleaning
Unplug the appliance before you clean it.
Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
Clean your appliance with a soft damp (not wet) cloth.
Ventilation
Any slots and opening on the appliance are for ventilation. Do not cover or block them as it could lead to
overheating.
NEVER let children push anything into the holes or slots on the case.
Servicing
There are no user serviceable parts in your HDD video recorder.
When servicing, refer to qualified service personnel.
Battery disposal
Please ensure batteries are disposed of safety.
Electrical information
Make ensure that the voltage of your electricity supply is the same as that indicated on the rear plate. This appliance may
be fitted with a non-rewireable plug. If you need to change the fuse in a non-rewireable, the fuse cover must be refitted.
If the fuse cover is lost or damaged, the plug must not be used until a replacement is obtained (available from the
appliance manufacturers). It is important that the colour of the replacement fuse cover corresponds with the colour
marking on the base of the plug.
If the plug has to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket, or becomes damaged, it should be removed and
an appropriate plug fitted following the wiring instructions below. The plug removed must be disposed of safety as
insertion into a main socket is likely to cause an electrical hazard.
If a 3 Amp (BS1363) plug is used, a 3 Amp fuse (BS1362) must be fitted, or if any other type of plug is used a 3 Amp
fuse must be fitted, either in the plug, adaptor or on the distribution board.
