prevent the recorder from malfunctioning, a five-

Notes About This Recorder

On operation

• If the recorder is brought directly from a cold to

a warm location, or is placed in a very damp
room, moisture may condense on the lenses
inside the recorder. Should this occur, the
recorder may not operate properly. In this case,
remove the disc and leave the recorder turned on
for about half an hour until the moisture
evaporates.

• When you move the recorder, take out any discs.

If you don’t, the disc may be damaged.

On adjusting volume

Do not turn up the volume while listening to a
section with very low level inputs or no audio
signals. If you do, the speakers may be damaged
when a peak level section is played.

On cleaning

Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with a soft
cloth slightly moistened with a mild detergent
solution. Do not use any type of abrasive pad,
scouring powder or solvent such as alcohol or
benzine.

About repairing the hard disk drive

• It may be necessary to access data stored on the

hard disk for testing purposes; there is no
intention to copy or store the data, titles or any
other information.

• If replacement or initialization (format) is

required, the hard disk will be formatted at our
discretion. In this case, please note that all of the
contents recorded there will be erased (including
any data found to violate copyright law).

On cleaning discs

Do not use a commercially available cleaning
disc. It may cause a malfunction.
