Caution
b Delivery and portability
• Never move this unit while the power is
turned on.
• Remove the power cable from the outlet,
confirm that the connection cable has
been removed, and store in original
packaging before delivering. Deliver using
a method that causes the least amount of
shock and/or damage to this unit. Also, do
not drop this unit.
b Maintenance where the unit is going to remain
unused for long periods
Remove the power cable from the outlet.
Carrying out maintenance without removing
the power cable may cause electrocution.
b Cleaning the internal components
Consult the dealership or factory shop where
you purchased this unit for cleaning internal
components. Leaving the unit unused for long
periods of time may attract dust to the
internal components, which in turn may
cause fires and/or breakdowns.
b Do not block the cooling fans or air ducts.
• This unit is equipped with air ducts and
cooling fans in order to assist the
ventilation of hot air produced by the hard
disk drive.
Placing covers, placing in a case, or
placing inside book cases may cause heat
build up, and may result in fire and/or
electrocution.
When the unit is setup in a rack leave open space on
all sides.
• Leave 1 cm or more of space above and below.
• Leave 5 cm or more of space on both sides and on the
back side.
b Do not expose to extreme temperatures or
temperature variations.
• Do not place in areas where the unit will
be exposed to extreme temperatures (±10
degrees Centigrade per hour) or moisture
changes.
Do not operate when the unit is in a state
of condensation.
Operating when the unit is in a state of condensation may
cause breakdowns. When exposed to extreme
temperature changes, turn the power off and leave the unit
for approximately two hours (until the surrounding
temperature stabilizes) and then start the unit.
b Cautionary points on condensation
Condensation will result if cold water is poured into a cup.
The internal components of this unit are also susceptible
to the same condition. This condition is called
condensation.
Using this unit while condensation is present may cause
breakdowns.
Take care to avoid condensation when the environment
experiences sudden changes of temperature while the
power is turned off (room where the unit is placed is
heated quickly).
Condensation will not occur while the power is turned on.
When condensation is likely to result...
Use after turning the power off and leaving for 1~2 hours.
b Points on unit positioning
This unit is constructed using precision
electronic parts. Avoid placing it in areas
described below as this may cause faulty
operation and/or breakdowns.
• In direct sunlight
• In places exposed to water
• In the vicinity of cooling and heating devices or
humidifiers
• Near the air conditioner where the unit is exposed to
cool air
• Dusty areas
• Areas that contain fire hazards
• Areas that contain magnetic items
