Removable Hard Disk
The removable hard disk is a precision electronic device.
Be careful when handling it.
Cautions for external jolt or stress
● After removing the disk from the camera, store it by
inserting into the supplied protective case.
● Do not press on the cover.
● Do not subject the disk to
vibrations or sudden jolts. Be
especially careful to avoid
sudden jolts when shooting or
during playback.
● Do not affix stickers or write on the label.
● Do not apply strong pressure to the outside of the disk.
Also, do not put it in your pants pocket or other location
where it can be pressed on.
Cautions for temperature
● The camera’s protection circuit may work for the proper
recording or playback when the camera’s internal
temperature rises or during usage in a cold location.
(੬ pg. 36)
● The camera and removable hard disk can heat up when
used for an extended period. However, this is not a
malfunction.
● The disk can heat up when used for an extended period.
Therefore, do not remove it immediately from the camera.
Other cautions
● Condensation can cause the drive to break down. If water is
splashed on the drive, make sure that it is completely dried
before usage.
● Do not use, replace, or store the disk in locations that are
exposed to strong static electricity or electrical noise.
● Do not turn off the camera power or remove the battery or
AC adapter during shooting, playback, or when otherwise
accessing the recording medium.
● Do not bring the recording medium near objects that have a
strong magnetic field or that emit strong electromagnetic
waves.
● Since data must be read and written by the drive correctly,
the camera may be unable to shoot when the camera heats
up, such as during continuous shooting, or when the
camera is cooled down during usage in a cold location. To
fix this problem, follow the messages displayed on the
screen. (੬ pg. 36)
● To maintain high performance, perform check disks (error
checks) using your computer on a regular basis. Use a USB
cable to connect the camera and PC, and then perform the
check disk on the removable hard disk using the same
procedure as a regular local disk (C drive). Refer to the
instruction manual of your PC for check disks.
● Clean up the disk regularly to maintain high performance.

Also read “Recording Medium” on page 38.
Be careful to completely delete data when discarding or
giving away the removable hard disk.
When recording data is formatted or deleted on the camera,
this only modifies the file management information, and the
data is not completely erased. When discarding or giving away
the removable hard disk, to prevent problems caused by the
release of sensitive information, it is extremely important that
the customer take responsibility to erase all recorded data.
Some recommended methods of erasing data include using a
commercial data removal program or using a hammer or
strong magnet to physically or magnetically destroy the data
on the hard disk so that it cannot be read. JVC shall not be
responsible for any personal data that is released.
