General Safety Precautions 

 

Make sure to read all messages with this icon for important information 
on various important points on the HDPro. Failure to pay attention 

to these warnings could result in loss of data or other serious consequences.

 

 

1.  Do not attempt to service this unit yourself. Opening or removing the side covers will expose you  

to dangerous voltages or other hazards. 

2.  Do not use this unit near water – such as: bathtub, sink, in a wet area or near a swimming pool. 
 

Doing so will increase the chances of a short circuit or electrocution. 

3.  Do not place this unit on any unstable surface such as: a cart, stands, bracket or table. The unit 
 

may fall causing serious injury and/or damage to the unit. 

4.  Do not block the front and rear ventilation. Proper airflow is required to ensure reliable operation 

 and to prevent overheating.

 

5.  Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounded power plug. Use a grounded power outlet and  

the power connector intended for the unit. 

6.  Power cord provided is for North America use only. Outside of North America the proper power  

cord must be procured and used.
