Backing Up Data - Sony PS4 CUH-1206A Safety Manual

• Be sure to reattach the HDD bay cover before turning
the PS4™ system on. If the cover is not in place, heat
may build up inside the system.
Notice
• The hard disk drive is a sensitive piece of equipment
and should be handled with care at all times. To help
prevent loss or corruption of software or data, or
damage to the hard disk drive, carefully follow the
precautions listed below:
– Do not throw or drop the system or hard disk drive,
or otherwise expose either device to strong
vibrations or strong physical impact.
– Do not allow liquid or small particles to get into the
system or hard disk drive.
– Do not touch the connectors or insert foreign objects
into the connectors.
– Do not place the system or hard disk drive close to
magnetic fields such as those produced by magnets
or loudspeakers. Also, do not place devices that may
be sensitive to magnetic forces (such as a wrist
watch or a credit card) near the hard disk drive.
– Do not put heavy objects on the hard disk drive.
– Store in a cool, dry location.
• To attach or remove screws, use an appropriate
crosshead screwdriver. If the size does not match, the
groove on the screw's head may be damaged.
• You should where possible make periodic back-ups of
data stored on the hard disk drive as a precaution
against possible loss or corruption. If for any reason
software or data loss or corruption occurs or the hard
disk drive must be formatted during authorized service,
it may not be possible to restore or repair the software
or data. Note that Sony Computer Entertainment Inc.
and its subsidiaries and affiliates will not be liable for
any loss or corruption of data, files or software.
• Do not turn off the PS4™ system or remove the storage
media during the installation of the system software.
Cancelling installation may result in damage to the
system.
• During the installation of the system software, the
power button on the system and the PS button on the
controller are not active.
