Important Safety Information

Thank you for choosing this Toshiba Digital TV recorder.
Before using the Digital TV recorder, please take a minute to read the following important
safety information.
• Although this appliance has been
carefully manufactured and rigorously
checked prior to leaving the factory, as
with all electrical appliances it is possible
for problems to develop. If you notice
smoke, an excessive build-up of heat
or any other unexpected phenomena,
you should disconnect the plug from the
mains power socket immediately.
• Ensure that the unit is sufficiently
ventilated! Never place next to or
underneath curtains!
• Only use the supplied AC mains adaptor.
• This AC mains adaptor should only be
connected to an AC 240V/50Hz mains
power supply - do not attempt to connect
it to any other type of supply.
• The socket-outlet must be installed near
the equipment and easily accessible.
• Do noT
cut off the supplied AC mains
adaptor's plug.
• Keep away from rodents. Rodents (and
also cockatiels) enjoy biting into electric
flexes.
• The animal can cause a short cut (fire
hazard!) and receive a fatal electric
shock.
• Always hold plug when pulling out plug
from power mains supply system. Do
noT pull on flex. The flex can become
overloaded and cause a short cut.
• Set up unit so that no one is able to trip
over the flex.
