1 Safety Precautions 1.1. General guidelines 1. When servicing, observe the original lead dress. If a short circuit is found, replace all parts which have been overheated or damaged by the short circuit. 2. After servicing, see to it that all the protective devices such as insulation barriers, insulation papers shields are properly installed.
2 Warning 2.1. Prevention of Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) to Electrostatic Sensitive (ES) Devices Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be damaged easily by static electricity. Such components commonly are called Electrostatic Sensitive (ES) Devices. Examples of typical ES devices are integrated circuits and some field-effect transistor-sand semiconductor "chip"...
2.3. Service caution based on legal restrictions 2.3.1. General description about Lead Free Solder (PbF) The lead free solder has been used in the mounting process of all electrical components on the printed circuit boards used for this equipment in considering the globally environmental conservation. The normal solder is the alloy of tin (Sn) and lead (Pb).
Please use a confirmed USB-HDD. For the latest information on confirmed USB-HDDs, please check the following website. http://panasonic.jp/support/global/cs/ • Certain non-confirmed USB-HDDs cannot be used with this unit. • If a problem occurs with the USB-HDD, please contact the manufacturer of the device.
