The built-in battery life is approximately 5 years as an indication of replacement. (This is just an indication of replacement. We are not providing any guarantee of the built-in battery lifetime. Replacement cost of the built-in battery is not covered by the warranty even if it needs to be done within the warranty period.) When reaching the end of its lifetime, the time and date setting will not be saved after the power of the unit is turned off. Ask the shop where you purchased the unit when replacement of the battery is required.

Built-in hard disk drives

Hard disk drives are vulnerable to vibration. Handle them with care. It is possible to damage them if they are moved while their motors are still running. Do not move them just after turning their power on or off (for around 30 seconds). A lifetime of hard disk drives is limited by use. It is recommended to replace them after around 18 000 hours of operation to prevent data loss from disk failures. Write error may occur frequently after around 20 000 hours of operation and the head and motor deterioration may

occur and will reach their lifetime after 30 000 hours of operation when they have been used at the recommended ambient temperature (approx. 25 °C {77 °F}). When hard disk drive trouble occurs, replace it immediately. Consult your dealer for servicing. When replacing the hard disk drives, take notice of the following.

• Protect the hard disk drives from static electricity.

• Do not stack them, or keep them upright.

• Do not use an electric screwdriver to fix them. (Tightening torque: Approx. 0.49 N·m {5 kgf·cm})

• Avoid rapid changes of the temperature/humidity to prevent condensation. (Acceptable change: within 15 °C/h {59 °F/h})

Avoid the following locations for installation.

• Places exposed to direct water, moisture, or sunlight directly

• Places subject to having strong vibration or impact

• Near magnetic field sources such as a television or speakers, magnet, etc.

• Steamy and oily places such as kitchens

• Places which are not level

• Place where condensation forms easily, where temperature changes greatly

Place the recorder horizontally on a level surface.

Do not place the recorder in an upright position. When stacking multiple recorders, clear a space of more than 5 cm from both sides, the top, the bottom and the rear of the recorders.

Heat dissipation

Refer to the following to prevent fire and malfunction of the recorder.

• Do not block the ventilation openings in the cover to prevent the recorder from overheating. Maintain the recorder periodically to prevent dust from blocking openings.

• A lifetime of the cooling fan is limited by use. Contact your dealer for servicing.

Avoid placing the recorder near noise sources

If the recorder is placed near noise sources such as fluorescent lamps, noises may be produced. In this case, rewire avoiding the noise sources, or move the recorder to the place far from them.

Grounding

Confirm that the wire is connected from the SIGNAL GND terminal to earth ground. A grounding connection must be made before connecting the power plug of the recorder to the main power supply. When disconnecting the grounding wire, make sure that the power plug of the recorder is disconnected from the main power supply.
