Precautions about Using This Product Upkeep of cabinet • The cabinet surface employs a lot of plastic. Do not wipe these surfaces with benzene or thinner because this may cause deterioration or paint peeling. • Do not apply volatile liquids like insecticide to the cabinet. Also, do not allow long-term contact with materials like rubber, vinyl products or synthetic leather. Doing so may cause problems like paint peeling. • Do not affix stickers or tape to the Recorder. Doing so may cause cabinet discoloration or damage. • If the cabinet or front panel display gets dirty, gently wipe it off with soft cloth like flannel. If it is extremely dirty, soak a cloth in neutral detergent diluted with water, wring the cloth well, wipe, and then wipe again with a dry cloth. Using powerful cleaners may cause discoloration, deterioration or paint peeling. We recommend testing any cleaners at an inconspicuous location on the Recorder. Electromagnetic interference • If you use a mobile phone or other electronic equipment near the Recorder, video may be disturbed or become noisy during playback or recording due to electromagnetic interference. Antenna • To avoid the effects of radio interference, set up the antenna at a location away from busy roads, electric wires for train, electric transmission lines and neon signs. This is effective for preventing electric shock accidents in the unlikely event that antenna falls down. • Do not make the antenna line unnecessarily long, or bundle it. Be careful because doing so will cause the picture to be unstable. • The antenna is exposed to the weather, so be careful to periodically check and replace it. This will ensure a beautiful picture. Antennas are particularly susceptible to damage at locations with heavy smoke and soot, and locations exposed to sea breeze. Hard disc (HDD) • This Recorder records programs onto a hard disc (HDD). The hard disc is equipped with a safety mechanism to protect data from impact, vibration and dust. However, to prevent loss of recorded data, you should be particularly careful of the following points: • Do not subject the Recorder to any impact. • Do not use at a location which is unstable or subject to vibration. • Do not move the Recorder while the power is on. • Do not unplug the power cord from the AC outlet during recording or playback. First turn power "OFF", and then unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. • Do not use at a location with abrupt temperature variation (variation of more than 50°F [10°C] per hour). • The Recorder will malfunction if used at a cold location (41°F [5°C] or less) or an extremely hot location (95°F 35°C] or higher). • If you carry the Recorder from a cold location to a warm location, let the Recorder sit for a while before using it. • In the unlikely event that the hard disc (HDD) malfunctions for some reason, you cannot replace it by yourself. If you disassemble the Recorder you will void the warranty. Please contact the nearest Sharp Authorized Service Center. We cannot provide compensation for data content if data is lost or not recorded. Connected equipment • Read carefully the "Precautions for Use" in the operation manual for any equipment connected to the Recorder. Power conservation • When you are finished using the Recorder, conserve power by turning power off. If you go on a trip, or otherwise will not use the Recorder for a long time, unplug the power cord from the AC outlet to ensure safety. If you do not use the Recorder for a long time • Failure to use the Recorder for a long time may cause problems, so turn on power and operate the Recorder from time to time. Requests regarding setup • Do not cover the fan or ventilation holes on the back of the Recorder. Doing so will interfere with heat radiation and cause malfunction. Notes about use • The Recorder and cabinet may become a little hot, depending on the use environment when using this Recorder. This is not a malfunction. • When unplugging the power cord (to move the Recorder, etc.), first turn off power (STANDBY indicator on the front of the Recorder lights up red) to protect the hard disc (HDD). • When power is turned on, the fan will rotate to cool the Recorder. • Immediately after plugging the power cord into an AC outlet, or after recovery from a power failure, the unit may fail to operate for more than ten seconds because the Recorder is performing system adjustment. Notes about this operation manual • In this operation manual, the terms "the Recorder", "this Recorder" or "your Recorder" refer to the "DV-HR300U DVD Recorder with Hard Disc". • The screen displays and Recorder illustrations given in this operation manual are for explanatory purposes, and may differ somewhat from the actual screen and Recorder. 9
