tioning, you are advised to take the following
precautions
when installing
or using the unit:
l
Do not expose to vibration or rough treatment.
l
Do not place in an enclosed area so that the rear cooling fan
and the cooling vents on the side are covered up.
*Do not place in an area where the changes in temperature
are extreme. Sudden, extreme changes in temperature may
cause condensation (+
right). Using the unit when there is
condensation inside will damage the HDD and may lead to
breakdown. Use of the unit in areas subject to temperature
changes of more than 20 degrees an hour is not
recommended.
l
Do not place in areas with high humidity.
l
Do not place the unit in any orientation other than horizontal.
l

r Press [<I>, DVD POWER] and confirm that "BYE" disappears
from the display,
In order to maximize the efficacy
of recording
using this
unit, a variable bit rate recording
system is used. This sys-
tem may sometimes
show the
amount
of time remaining
for recording
as being more or less than the amount of
time remaining.
l
If the remaining time is insufficient, erase any unwanted
programes to create enough space before starting recording.
l
When erasing programs, you should aim to create ample
space on the storage media for the intended program. This is
because the time available for recording may not increase in
exact proportion to the time represented by the programs you
erase.
In the event of a power failure
If a power failure occurs, contents in the process of playback/
recording as well as already recorded, saved or dubbed HDD
contents may be damaged.
Safeguards
against accidental
loss
Data may be lost if the HDD suffers damage. Any contents you
wish to keep permanently should be dubbed or transferred to
DVD-RAM or DVD-R.
n

contributing
to the occurrence
of
