Setting up the unit

Before using the UR-4MD, read and follow all safety instructions given in section “IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS” on page 4. Set up the unit in a location that meets the follow­ing requirements in order to ensure safe and proper operation.
o Environmental conditions:
• Temperature: 5–40 °C
• Humidity: 5–80 %RH (no condensation)
• Maximum wet bulb temperature: 29 °C
• Electromagnetic environment: See “Limits for elec­tromagnetic compatibility (EMC)” on page 46.
o Place the unit with its rubber feet down and install on
a level surface. Avoid vibrations.
6
Before use
o Avoid use in the following types of places because
doing so could result in malfunction or other trouble:
• Near equipment that generates high-frequency waves.
• Where strong magnetic force or static electricity is present.
o Depending on the television broadcast frequency,
uneven colors might appear on televisions that are used near this unit when its power is on. This is not a malfunction of either this device or the television. If this should happen, use the unit further from the affected device.
o Before packing the unit for relocation or transporta-
tion, for example, disconnect all cables and other devices. Not doing so could damage the connectors.

Internal hard disk drive

This unit has a built-in hard disk drive (HDD). This HDD is easily affected by impact forces, vibrations and changes in the environment, including the temperature, and this could affect video that is being recorded. Please observe the following precautions.
• Do not subject the unit to vibrations or impacts.
• Place and use the unit on a level surface.
• Do not turn the unit off while its hard disk is being accessed.

Built-in battery

This unit has a battery to run the internal clock. If this bat­tery dies, the correct time cannot be retained, and this will affect the time information of recorded images. We recommend changing the battery every five years before it dies. When changing the battery is necessary, contact the retailer where you purchased the unit or a contact on the back cover of this manual and request replacement.

Note about usable media

You can connect USB flash drives and USB hard drives to this unit. Format the media with this unit before recording.

Note about the built-in fan

The fan built into this unit has a limited lifespan. If it breaks, contact the retailer where you purchased the unit or a contact on the back cover of this manual and request repair.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Long-term storage of recorded contents on the built­in HDD cannot be guaranteed. Moreover, as space becomes necessary, the oldest recordings will be erased automatically. We recommend that you use a LAN or USB drive to transfer important video and photo data for storage on a computer or DVD, for example.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Hard disk drives eventually fail. Depending on use conditions, problems might start occurring in a few years. If recording or playback becomes impossible, contact the retailer where you purchased the unit or a contact on the back cover of this manual and request repair.
