Usage Precautions

Precautions for products with built-in HDD

This unit has a built-in hard disk drive (HDD). The HDD
is a precision device. If subject to shock, vibration, static
electricity, high temperature or humidity, data loss can
occur. When installing and using the unit, closely observe
the following precautions.
Protect from shocks and vibrations
When subject to shocks or vibrations, the HDD can be
damaged and loss of data on the HDD can occur.
• When transporting the unit, use the specified packing
material. When transporting on a dolly or similar, use a
type which does not transmit excessive vibrations.
Excessive shocks and vibrations can damage the HDD.
• Never move the unit while it is powered.
• Do not remove panels or outer parts of the unit.
• When placing the unit on a floor or other surface, place
on a level, stable surface.
• Do not place the unit near other devices that may become
a source of vibrations.
• When moving the unit, always turn the power supply off.
Wait for 30 seconds after turning power off
For a brief interval after the power is turned off, the platters
inside the HDD will still keep spinning and the heads will
be in an insecure position. During this interval, the unit is
more susceptible to shocks and vibrations than during
normal operation. For a period of at least 30 seconds after
turning power off, avoid subjecting the unit even to very
light shocks. After this period, the hard disk will be fully
stopped and the unit can be manipulated.
Temperature and humidity related precautions
Use and store the unit only in locations where the specified
temperature and humidity ranges are not exceeded. (Be
sure to use the unit that conforms fully to the specifications
of this unit.)
When HDD seems to be faulty
Even if the HDD is showing signs of malfunction, be sure
to observe all the above precautions. This will prevent
further damage from occurring until the problem can be
diagnosed and corrected.
Replacement of the HDD and other consumable
parts
The HDD and battery are consumable parts that will need
periodic replacement.
When operating at room temperature, a normal
replacement cycle will be about 2 to 5 years.
However, this replacement cycle represents only a general
guideline and does not imply that the life expectancy of
these parts is guaranteed. For details on parts replacement,
contact your dealer.
For details about the replacement cycle, contact your Sony
sales or service representative.
Power supply precautions
If the unit is suddenly turned off during operation, data loss
may occur. To maintain data integrity, the use of an
uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is recommended.
To disconnect the power cord or turn off the breaker,
always press the On/Standby button on the unit to stop the
unit before proceeding.
USB device precautions
When using the unit when connected to a self-powered
USB device (such as the ODS-D77U), the device may not
be recognized, depending on the timing of when the device
is turned on. If this occurs, turn the USB device off and on
again, or disconnect and reconnect the USB cable.
