Safety warnings and Cautions
The following are warnings and cautions for the safety of the users and for the prevention of any
property damage. Please read the following carefully.
WARNING
• Turn off the system before installation. Do not plug
in several electric devices to the same outlet.
- This may cause heating, fire, or electric shock.
• Install the system in a cool place without direct sun-
light and always maintain room temperature. Avoid
candlelight and heat generating devices such as
heaters. Keep the system away from places where
many people pass.
• Do not place any liquid container on the system,
such as water, coffee, or other beverage.
- If liquid is poured onto the system, it can cause a
system breakdown or fire.
- This may cause fire.
• Install the system on a plain surface with sufficient
air ventilation. Do not place the system on an ele-
vated surface.
- This may cause system breakdown or serious
injury.
• Prevent the power cable from being severely bent
or having pressure exerted on it by a heavy object.
- This may cause fire.
• Clean the dust around the system on a regular
basis. When cleaning the system, always use a dry
cloth. Do not use a wet cloth or other organic
solvents.
- This may damage the surface of the system and
can cause a system breakdown or electric shock.
• The power outlet must be placed on the ground,
and the voltage range must be within 10% of the
voltage rate. Do not use the same outlet with a hair
dryer, iron, refrigerator, or any heating appliances.
- This may cause fire, over heating or electric
shock.
• Avoid any place with moisture, dust, or soot.
- This can cause fire or electric shock.
• When the system’s battery is depleted, replace it
with the same or equivalent type of battery speci-
fied by the manufacturer. Depleted batteries should
be discarded according to the manufacturer’s
instructions.
• When pulling the power cable from the plug, do so
gently. Do not touch the plug with wet hands and
avoid using the plug if the holes in the outlet are
too loose.
- This may cause an explosion.
- This may cause fire or electric shock.
• If the system’s HDD exceeds its life span, you may
not be able to recover any data stored inside the
HDD. If the video on the system screen appears
‘damaged’ while playing a recording stored inside
the system’s HDD, it must be replaced with a new
one. Ask for an engineer’s assistance for HDD
replacement from your dealer.
• Do not attempt to disassemble, repair, or modify
the system on your own. It is extremely dangerous
due to the high voltage running through the system.
- This may cause fire, electric shock, or serious
injury.
- LG Electronics is not responsible for deleted data
caused by user mishandling.
• Check for any danger signs such as a moist floor, a
loosened or damaged power cable, or an unstable
surface. If you encounter any problems, ask your
dealer for assistance.
- This may cause fire or electric shock.
• Keep a distance of at least 15cm between the back
of the system and the wall for the cables connected
to the system otherwise, they may be bent, dam-
aged, or cut.
- This may cause fire, electric shock, or injury.

• Install the system in a place with sufficient air venti-
lation.
- Keep at least 15cm distance between the back of
the system and the wall, and at least 5cm distance
between the side of the system and the wall.
It is recommended to use AVR (Automatic Voltage
Regulator) for a stable power supply.
It is recommended to coil the core-ferrite around
the connector of the system to avoid electromag-
netic interference.
• Do not install the system in a place with high mag-
netic, electric wave, or wireless devices such as a
radio or a TV.
- Do not install the system in a place with magnetic
objects, electric frequencies, or vibration.
• The outlet must be placed on the ground.
• If there is strange sound or smell, unplug the power
cable immediately and contact the service center.
- This may cause fire or electric shock.
• Do not place any heavy object on the system.
- This may cause system breakdown.
• In order to maintain stable system performance,
have your system checked regularly by the service
center.
• Install the system on a stable, level surface.
- The system may not operate properly.
- LG Electronics is not held responsible for system
breakdown caused by user mishandling.
- There is a risk of explosion if a battery is
replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used
batteries according to the instructions.

Concerning the Internal Hard Installing or Replacing the
Disk Drive
Hard Disk Drive
The internal hard disk drive (HDD) is a fragile piece
of equipment. Please follow the guidelines below
when using the DVR to protect against possible HDD
failure.
Installing the Hard Disk Drive
You can install up to 4 HDDs.
We recommend that you back up your important
recordings onto an external backup device in order to
prevent accidental loss.
However, since the product contains many parts
which may incur electric shocks, accidents or
product breakdown, and because improper instal-
lation or setup may disturb HDD recognition or
normal product operation, you should consult
with an expert from the store where the product
was purchased.
Make sure that the power is turned OFF when attach-
ing or removing the HDD.
• Do not move the DVR while the power is on.
• Do not block the rear vent/cooling fan.
Turn the power of the unit off and detach the power
plug from the outlet.
• Do not use the DVR in excessively hot or humid
places, or in places that may be subject to sudden
changes in temperature. Sudden changes in tem-
perature can cause condensation to form inside the
DVR. This can be a cause of HDD failure.
1. Remove the fixing screws on the left/right side
and rear panel.
• While the DVR is switched on, do not unplug from
the wall socket or switch the electricity off from the
breaker switch.
• If there’s a power failure while the DVR is on there
is a chance that some data on the HDD will be lost.
• Do not drop the HDD. Also do not put the metallic
object such as coins or screwdrivers into the HDD
tray.
• When a power failure occurs during recording,
avoid adding, replacing or transporting the HDD as
the recorded data may be erased. In this case, turn
the power back on to boot up the unit normally with
the HDD that was being used at the time of the
power failure attached. Then add, replace, or trans-
port the HDD.
2. Detach the top case by sliding it after removing
the screws.
• The HDD is very delicate. Handle the HDD with
care and follow the precautions below because
even a small shock may damage the internal com-
ponents of the HDD.
3. Detach the front panel as shown below.
- Do not place the HDD on a desk or a table
directly. Put a thick cushion under the HDD
because even a small shock may damage the
internal components of the HDD.
- Do not use an electric screwdriver. Vibrations
and shocks caused by an electric screwdriver
may damage the internal components of the
HDD.
- When replacing the HDD, do not knock the HDD
with other components such as another HDD and
the HDD tray.
- Do not knock the HDD with tools such as a driver
when replacing the HDD.
• Protect the hard disk drives from static electricity.

D Attach the fourth HDD onto the lower side of
the secondary HDD mounting bracket and
set the secondary slave HDD.
• When installing 2 HDDs.

record audio.

• Check the video format setting of the unit is the same as the connected
camera’s video format. Depending on your region, the camera’s video format
can support either PAL or NTSC. Depending on the camera’s video format, the
video process can differ greatly, therefore it can be difficult to recognize the
video data if the video format setting is different from the camera’s video
