Safety precautions

Follow the points outlined below for proper use

b Back up battery.

b Maintaining this unit

•A built-in lithium battery allows the date to be set. The lithium battery is not rechargeable.

The life expectancy of the lithium battery is approximately 2 years.

•When the battery is flat the monitor displays the "THE CLOCK IS NOT RESPONDING" message. The clock is automatically reset in case of battery fluid leak or when the battery has reached the end of its life expectancy. Consult the dealership where this unit was purchased or the nearest repair center for battery replacement.

Battery fluid leaks

In the event that the battery fluid has leaked rinse hands/ clothes thoroughly with water.

Loss of eyesight may result if battery fluid enters the eyes. Do not rub the eyes. Immediately rinse with clean water and consult a physician.

When disposing of this unit

Consult the dealership where this unit was purchased for information concerning the disposal of the lithium battery.

b If unused for a lengthy period of time

Remove the power plug from the outlet. Remember to occasionally turn the power on in order to maintain correct function.

bPre-confirm important recording assignments

Recording and/or playback functions may be unavailable due to hard-drive or connecting unit failures. Always confirm that recording can be carried out successfully before carrying out important recording assignments. The recorded content cannot be guaranteed.

Main parts replacement timings

Continued use of this unit in a 25°C environment may result in wear and deterioration of the parts of the unit. We recommend you replace the following parts according to the timings listed below. The replacement timings listed are approximate and do not guarantee the performance of the part in question.

bHard disk: 2 years (25°C environment)

The life expectancy of each part depends on the environment in which the unit is used. However, the head and motor are particularly prone to wear and deterioration. Therefore, writing errors are more likely to occur after two years of use.

bCooling fan: 3 years (25°C environment)

Cooling fan failure causes higher internal temperatures which may result in a faulty hard disk. Periodically check whether the cooling fan is working properly.

Warning

The hard disk is a precision instrument. To avoid damage, handle the hard disk with care and do not expose it to shock.

Do not block the ventilation holes and do not allow the cooling fan to stop. Doing so may cause heat build up and may shorten the life expectancy of the hard disk.

GThis unit is designed to be positioned horizontally. Do not position vertically.

GDo not expose to shock or vibration and do not transport while power is turned on.

Always turn the power off when moving in and out of racks or other shelves.

GDo not remove the power plug while recording or playing images back.

GDo not move the unit for approximately 30 seconds after turning the power off.

The hard disk continues to rotate for a short duration after the power has been turned off. The unit is further susceptible to damage through shock and vibration during that period. It is imperative that you do not move the unit during that time.

GDo not expose to shock or vibration.

Avoid placing this unit directly on the floor. Make sure that the four stands attached to the base of this unit are used when placing it on the floor.

GAlways use the original packaging (packaging supplied at the time of purchase), when shipping the unit.

Make sure you use the packaging materials supplied at the time of the original purchase when shipping the unit or a single internal component of the unit. Select a shipping method that will cause the least amount of shock to the unit during shipping.

Consult the dealership where this unit was purchased for hard disk replacement.

•The hard disk is vulnerable to static electric shocks. Take appropriate measures to prevent exposure to static electricity.

•Unpackaged drives should be placed horizontally with their base plate facing upwards on top of a soft cloth. Exposing the hard disk to shocks and vibration may cause breakdowns.

•Do not expose the drive to shocks and/or vibrations when removing/tightening the screws at the time of hard disk replacement. Firmly tighten the screws after replacement.
