Precautions
HDD (Hard Disk Drive)
The hard disk has a high storage density, which enables long recording durations and quick
access to written data. However, it can easily be damaged by shock, vibration or dust and
should be kept away from magnets. To avoid losing important data, observe the following
precautions.
• Do not use the DMC in a place subject to extreme changes in temperature.
• Do not apply a strong shock to the DMC.
• Do not place the DMC in a location subject to mechanical vibrations or in an unstable
location.
Disc Handling
• Use discs with regular shapes. If an irregular disc (a disc with a special shape) is used, this
DMC may be damaged.
Cautions on handling discs
• Avoid touching the surface of a disc where recording is performed.
• Do not write on the printed side with a ball-point pen or pencil.
• Do not use record cleaning sprays or antistatic. Also, do not use volatile chemicals, such as
benzene or thinner.
• Do not apply labels or stickers to discs. (Do not use discs fixed with exposed tape adhesive
or leftover peeled-off stickers.)
• Do not use scratch-proof protectors or covers.
• Do not use discs printed with label printers available on the market.
• Do not load warped or cracked discs.
Disc Storage
Be careful not to harm the disc because the data on these discs is highly vulnerable to the
environment.
• Do not keep under direct sunlight.
• Keep in a cool ventilated area.
• Store vertically.
• Keep in a clean protection jacket.
• If you move your DMC suddenly from a cold place to a warm place, condensation may
generate on the operating parts and lens and cause abnormal disc playback. If this occurs,
remove the disc and wait for one to two hours with the power on before attempting playback.
