Precautions
Make sure that the voltage of your AC power outlet matches the voltage
requirements printed on the unit.
When disconnecting the AC cable, make sure that the unit [POWER] switch is
set to "OFF".
Disconnecting the AC cable while the power is "ON" may damage data
because the unit always transfers data between the current card and memory.
While the unit is accessing the DVD-RAM disk or internal HDD (for example,
during recording), never turn off the power. Make sure that the unit
completely stops accessing the disk before you turn off the power.
Otherwise, recorded data may be lost, as well as the DVD-RAM disk and
internal HDD may be damaged.
Note that Fostex assumes no responsibility on data loss or whatsoever due to use of
the unit.
Fostex is not responsible for any "direct damage" or "indirect damage" caused
by using the unit.
Do not let water or other liquid, or metal objects such as pins, accidentally
enter the inside of the unit (especially inside of the card slots) because this
may lead to electric shock or damage. Should water enter the inside of the
unit, turn off the power, unplug the AC cable, and consult your dealer or the
nearest FOSTEX service station.
Do not drop the unit or give it a strong shock. The internal circuits may be
damaged. Although the unit is designed to operate outside, handle the unit
with great care because it is a precision machine.
To prevent possible electric shock and damage to the unit, do not remove the
cover or reach the inside of the unit.
When using the supplied carrying belt, to prevent the unit from dropping
accidentally, make sure that it is attached to the unit correctly.
