Placement precautions
Inadequate ventilation or proximity to a heat 
source will cause decreased performance and 
reliability.  Although the HD DVR is designed 
to automatically power off in extreme heat 
conditions, adequate care must be taken to 
avoid excessive heat build up.
- Do not place the recorder on a soft surface, 
such as a rug and do not place on an uneven 
surface in which all four of the feet do not 
evenly support the recorder.  Such improper 
placement may block the ventilation holes on 
the bottom of the recorder.
- 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.
- This recorder will shut automatically to pro-
tect the hard disk in extreme heat conditions.
Do not place the recorder in an inclined 
position.  It is designed to be operated in a 
horizontal or vertical position only.
Keep the recorder away from the equipment 
with strong magnets, such as a microwave 
oven, large soundspeakers or other equipment.
Keep the recorder away from liquid and 
moisture source such as kitchen sink, wash 
bowl, bath tub, shower, laundry tub or wet 
basement. Do not unplug with wet hand.
Do not place heavy objects on the recorder.
Do not place objects which may splash or drip 
liquids, such as plants or fountains, on or near 
the recorder.
Do not place on top of the TV.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
This recorder is capable of holding a still video 
image or on-screen display image on your 
television screen for an extended period of time.  If 
you leave a still video image or on-screen display 
image displayed on your TV for an extended 
period of time you risk permanent damage to your 
television screen.  Plasma display panels and 
projection televisions are especially susceptible to 
this.  Refer to your TV's operating instructions for 
further information.
Ventilation Clearance
When installing the unit, please allow enough space on 
all sides as indicated in the illustrations. 
Also, when placing the unit, make sure it is on a firm, 
flat surface. Keep the space below the unit clear, this is 
to allow ventilation under the unit.

Unplug the unit from the wall outlet before cleaning.  
Use a dry, soft cloth to wipe dust off the unit. 
Do not allow dust to accumulate under the unit. Do not 
use liquid or aerosol cleaners.  Never use strong 
solvents such as thinner or benzene for cleaning.
Damage requiring service
: Do not attempt to service 
the unit by yourself.  Opening the cabinet may expose 
you to dangerous voltage or other hazards, and will 
void your warranty. Unplug the unit from the wall 
outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
