1 Safety recommendations
Use of the recorder is subject to safety measures designed to protect
users and their environment.
Where to put your recorder?
In order to guarantee the correct operation of your recorder, you
must:
• place it indoors to protect it from lightning, rain, and direct
sunlight,
• place it in a dry and well ventilated area,
• keep it away from heat sources such as radiators, candles, lamps,
etc.
• protect it from dampness, place it on a flat surface from where it
will not fall and is out of the reach of children,
• avoid violent shocks. Choose a stable, horizontal surface on
which the recorder will not be exposed to intense vibrations.
• do not place anything on top of your recorder (as it would
restrict ventilation): the ventilation slots located on the casing
prevent your recorder from overheating. If you place the
recorder in a compartment or other closed space, leave a space
of at least 10 cm on each side and 20 cm on the front and back
of the recorder,
• connect it directly to the mains with the provided cords, the
socket must be near the recorder and easy to access. The use of
an extension cable (with multi-points) is not recommended.
Warnings and safety instructions
NEVER OPEN THE RECORDER OR THE POWER SUPPLY UNIT!
YOU RISK GETTING AN ELECTRIC SHOCK.
• Use only the power supply unit supplied with the
recorder to connect it to the mains. Other practice
may be dangerous.
• As a precaution, in case of danger, the power supply
unit acts as a disconnecting mechanism for the 230V
power supply. That is why it is imperative that you
connect the recorder to a power outlet located
nearby and easily accessible.
• Connect the recorder to the mains in accordance with the
indications mentioned on the identification label affixed on the
recorder (voltage, current, frequency of electricity network).
• The identification label is located under the recorder or on the
rear panel.
• You must imperatively connect the power supply unit to the
recorder before connecting the power supply unit to the power
socket. Ensure the power cord is correctly connected to the
mains power socket and to the recorder. Otherwise, there is a
risk of fire and you risk getting an electric shock when touching
the recorder.
• You must imperatively use the recorder in an environment that
complies with the following requirements:
• temperature: between 0°C [32°F] and 40°C [104°F].
• ambient humidity: between 20% and 90%.
• altitude: below 2000 m [6562 ft].
• To avoid short-circuits (fire or electrocution hazard), do not
expose your recorder to dampness. Do not place any object
containing liquid (vase for example) on the appliance.
The recorder must not be splashed with liquid. If liquid is spilled
onto the recorder, unplug it immediately from the mains and
consult your supplier.
• Take care not to allow liquids or metal objects to enter the
recorder through the ventilation slots.
• Avoid reconnecting the recorder after it has been subjected to
large changes in temperature.
• The recorder must be disconnected from mains supply (from the
power outlet or rear panel) before any modification of
connection between TV, VCR or antenna.
• In the event of a storm, it is advisable to unplug the antenna.
Even if the recorder and the television set are disconnected from
the power supply, lightning can still damage them.
• If you hear unusual noise coming from the mains power socket
or from the power cord or adapter, disconnect immediately the
power cord from the mains power socket in accordance with all
the precautions of use, you risk getting an electric shock, and
contact your retailer.
• Never connect the recorder to a mains power socket which is
loose, shows signs of wear or damage, you risk getting an electric
shock.
• Never touch the power cord with wet hands. You risk getting an
electric shock.
• When connecting or disconnecting the power cord, always take
hold of the plug without pulling on the cord. A damaged cord
presents a potential risk of fire or electric shock. Never pull the
power cord when disconnecting from the mains power socket.
• Never place objects on the power cord, and never pull on it or
fold it. This may cause a risk of fire or electric shock. Ensure that
the recorder never lies on the power cord or any other cables.
• Never place objects on the power adapter, never step on it or
roll over it with a rolling device. You risk damaging the power
adapter and creating a risk of fire or electric shock.
• Ensure the recorder is placed on a flat and stable surface, placing
it incorrectly may lead to the power cord being disconnected.
This may cause a risk of fire or electric shock.
