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
power cord (mains lead)
connected.
• Do not disconnect the power cord
(mains lead) while the power is on.
• When disconnecting the 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 and all recording or
dubbing has stopped).
• Do not move the recorder for one
minute after you have unplugged
the power cord (mains lead).
• Do not attempt to replace or
upgrade the hard disk by yourself,
as this may result in malfunction.

If the hard disk drive should
malfunction, you cannot recover lost
data. The hard disk drive is only a
temporary storage space.
About repairing the hard disk
drive
• The contents of the hard disk drive
may be checked in case of repair
or inspection during a malfunction
or modification. However, the
contents will not be backed up or
saved by Sony.
• If the hard disk needs to be
formatted or replaced, it will be
done at the discretion of Sony. All
contents of the hard disk drive will
be erased, including contents that
violate copyright laws.
On power sources
• The recorder is not disconnected
from the AC power source (mains)
as long as it is connected to the
wall outlet, even if the recorder
itself has been turned off.
• If you are not going to use the
recorder for a long time, be sure to
disconnect the recorder from the
wall outlet. To disconnect the AC
power cord (mains lead), grasp the
plug itself; never pull the cord.
• Before disconnecting the AC
power cord (mains lead), check
that the recorder’s hard disk is not
operating (recording or dubbing)
on the front panel display.
On placement
• Place the recorder in a location with
adequate ventilation to prevent heat
build-up in the recorder.
• Do not place the recorder on a soft
surface such as a rug that might
block the ventilation holes.
• Do not place the recorder in a
confined space such as a bookshelf
or similar unit.
• Do not place the recorder in a
location near heat sources, or in a
place subject to direct sunlight,
excessive dust, or mechanical
shock.

inclined position. It is designed to
be operated in a horizontal
position only.

from equipment with strong
magnets, such as microwave
ovens, or large loudspeakers.

for under any and all conditions,
including conditions that may
arise due to a malfunction of this
unit.
• Make trial recordings before
making the actual recording.
