Safety precautions

Caution

b Delivery and portability

• Never move this unit while the power is turned on.

• Remove the power cable from the outlet, confirm that the connection cable has been removed, and store in original packaging before delivering. Deliver using a method that causes the least amount of shock and/or damage to this unit. Also, do not drop this unit.

Remove the power cable from the outlet.

b Maintenance when the unit is going to remain

unused for long periods

Remove the power cable from the outlet. Carrying out maintenance without removing the power cable may cause electrocution.

Remove the power cable from the outlet.

b Cleaning the internal components

Consult the dealership or factory shop where you purchased this unit for cleaning internal components. Leaving the unit unused for long periods of time may attract dust to the internal components, which in turn may cause fires and/or breakdowns.

b Do not expose to extreme temperatures or

temperature variations.

• Do not place in areas where the unit will be exposed to extreme temperatures (±10 degrees Centigrade per hour) or moisture changes.

b Points on unit positioning

This unit is constructed using precision electronic parts. Avoid placing it in areas described below as this may cause faulty operation and/or breakdowns.

• In direct sunlight

• In places exposed to water

• In the vicinity of cooling and heating devices or humidifiers

• Near the air conditioner where the unit is exposed to cool air

• Dusty areas

• Areas that contain fire hazards

• Areas that contain magnetic items

• In the vicinity of volatile substances

• Areas where the unit will be exposed to constant vibration (in trains, cars, etc.)

Prohibited

b Do not block the cooling fans or air ducts.

• This unit is equipped with air ducts and cooling fans in order to assist the ventilation of hot air produced by the hard disk drive. Placing covers, placing in a case, or placing inside book cases may cause heat build up, and may result in fire and/or electrocution.

When the unit is setup in a rack leave open space on all sides.

• Leave 1 cm or more of space above and below.

• Leave 5 cm or more of space on both sides and on the back side.

Prohibited

b Cautionary points on condensation

Condensation will result if cold water is poured into a cup. The internal components of this unit are also susceptible to the same condition. This condition is called condensation.

Do not operate when the unit is in a state of condensation.

Operating when the unit is in a state of condensation may cause breakdowns. When exposed to extreme temperature changes, turn the power off and leave the unit for approximately two hours (until the surrounding temperature stabilizes) and then start the unit.

Using this unit while condensation is present may cause breakdowns.

When condensation is likely to result...

Use after turning the power off and leaving for 1~2 hours.

Safety precautions

Follow the points outlined below for proper use

b Hard disk

This unit is loaded with a hard disk drive. Stored data on this unit may be damaged/lost through hard-disk breakdowns caused by shock/vibration.

Follow the items outlined below when placing, transporting, and operating this unit.

Warning

G This unit is designed to be positioned horizontally.

Do not position vertically.

G Do not expose to shock or vibration and do not

transport while power is turned on.

Always turn the power off, even when moving in and out of racks.

G Do not remove the power cable while recording or

playing back.

G Do not move the unit for approximately 30 seconds

after turning the power off.

The hard disk is rotating for a short duration after the power is turned off. The unit is further susceptible to damages through shock and vibration in this state compared to when the power is turned on. Do not move it.

G Do 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.

G Always use the original packaging (packaging

provided at the time of purchase), when delivering.

Use the packaging materials provided during the original purchase when the unit or a single internal component is going to be delivered. Deliver using a method that causes the least amount of shock and/or damage to this unit.

Caution

G Inspecting for abnormalities in the hard disk drive and

the cooling fan

This unit is designed to automatically check the drive and cooling fan when the power is turned on. Replacement parts will be necessary if abnormalities are detected.

Images will have to be saved and initialization will have to take place if there is a fault with the drive. Consult the dealership where this unit was purchased for details.

G Wear in the hard disk drive and the cooling fan

The hard disk drive and cooling fan are consumable items.

Replace the parts stated below when using the unit in a 25°C environment. The replacement timings listed are approximate and do not guarantee the performance or life expectancy of the part in question.

• Hard disk: 2 years

• Cooling fan: 3 years

• Damper: 2 years

Consult the dealership where the unit was purchased for replacement drives.

• The drive is vulnerable to static electricity shocks. Take the appropriate measures to prevent exposure to static electricity.

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

• Do not expose the drive to shocks and vibrations while removing/tightening the screws during replacement. Firmly tighten the screws after replacement.

5 Foreword

Safety precautions

bBack up battery

• A lithium battery (fixed) is built into this unit. Supplying power for more than 48 hours after setting the date and time will allow the internal power source to sustain the set time for 30 days.

• The battery is expected to last for approximately 5 years if the unit is used regularly.

• Battery fluid leaks Rinse hands/clothes thoroughly with water in case

battery fluid has leaked. Loss of eyesight may result if battery fluid enters the

eyes. Do not rub. Immediately rinse with clean water and consult a physician.

The following symptoms will result if the battery is leaking or has reached the end of its life expectancy. Consult the dealership where this unit was purchased or the nearest repair center for replacements.

• The clock is automatically reset once the power source is cut.

• Does not return to automatic standby.

• The image number is not recorded.

When disposing of this unit

Consult the dealership where the unit was purchased for the disposal process of the lithium battery.

bIf unused for a lengthy period of time

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

bPre-confirm important recording

assignments.

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

It is recommended that periodic back ups or mirroring is conducted in order to prevent breakdowns or recording faults through accidents.

bMaintaining this unit

Turn the power off and remove the power cable from the outlet.

Wipe away dust using a soft cloth.

When the stains are hard to remove...

Soak the cloth in water with diluted neutral detergent. Wipe the stain and moisture away with a dry cloth.

Note:

• Do not use paint thinner, benzine, or any other alcohol based agents for cleaning. The exterior may deteriorate or the paint may wear off.

• Follow the instructions provided on the packaging of the chemical cleaning agent.

• Do not spray volatile substances, such as insecticides, etc. onto the unit.

• Also, avoid direct contact of rubber or vinyl products with the unit. This may cause the exterior to deteriorate or the paint to wear off.
