About the hard disk drive
The hard disk has a high storage
density, which enables long
recording durations and quick
access to the 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 apply a strong shock to
the recorder.
• Do not place the recorder in a
location subject to mechanical
vibrations or in an unstable
location.
• Do not place the recorder on
top of a hot surface, such as a
VCR or amplifier (receiver).
• Do not use the recorder in a
place subject to extreme
changes in temperature
(temperature gradient less
than 10 °C/hour).
• Do not move the recorder
with its AC power cord
(mains lead) connected.
• Do not disconnect the AC
power cord (mains lead) while
the power is on.
• When disconnecting the AC
power cord (mains lead), turn
off the power and make sure
that the hard disk drive is not
operating (the clock is
displayed in the front panel
display for at least 30 seconds
and all recording or dubbing
has stopped).
