3. Cautions on repair Before repairing a product of the gigabeat S series, take the following cautions: 3.1. Tell the owner that the contents on the HDD may be erased. Replacing or formatting the HDD will erase the content on the HDD. Therefore, in receiving the product from the owner, ask the owner to back up his/her important data. 3.2. Remove the AC adaptor and set the BATTERY switch to OFF. Before disassembling, ensure to remove the AC adaptor and set the BATTERY switch to "OFF". When the gigabeat S series is powered by the AC adaptor or the battery, even if the power switch is turned off, the power is supplied to the LCD and almost all ICs. Therefore, before repairing, the AC adaptor or the battery must be removed. By setting the BATTERY switch to "OFF", the power supply from the battery is stopped and the unit becomes in the same state as when the battery is removed. 7
