Handling the recorder

f Warning:
• Do not use the recorder near

flammable or explosive gases.

• Keep young children and infants

away from the recorder.

Always use and store the recorder out of
the reach of young children and infants
to prevent the following dangerous
situations which could cause serious
injury:
1 Becoming entangled in the recorder

strap, causing strangulation.

2 Accidentally swallowing the battery,

cards or other small parts.

3 Accidentally being injured by the

moving parts of the recorder.

• Do not use or store the recorder

in dusty or humid places.

• Do not disassemble, repair or

modify the unit yourself.

• Use

microSD/microSDHC

memory

cards only. Never use other types
of cards.

If you accidentally insert another type
of card into the recorder, contac t an
authorized distributor or service center.
Do not try to remove the card by force.

• Do not operate the unit while

operating a vehicle (such as a
bicycle, motorcycle, or car).

f Caution:
• Stop using the recorder

immediately if you notice any
unusual odors, noise, or smoke
around it.

Never remove the batteries with bare
hands, which may cause a fire or burn your
hands.

• Be careful with the strap.

Be careful with the strap when you carry
the recorder. It could easily catch on stray
objects and cause serious damage.

• Do not leave the recorder in

places where it may be subject to
extremely high temperatures.

Doing so may cause parts to deteriorate
and, in some circumstances, cause the
recorder to catch fire. Do not use the
charger or AC adapter if it is covered (such
as a blanket). This could cause overheating,
resulting in fire.

• Handle the recorder with care to

avoid getting a low-temperature
burn.

• When the recorder contains metal

parts, overheating can result in a low-
temperature burn. Pay attention to the
following:

• When used for a long period, the

recorder will get hot. If you hold on
to the recorder in this state, a low-
temperature burn may be caused.
