objects. The batteries could short, causing leak, rupture
or other trouble.
iDo not heat or disassemble batteries. Do not put them in
fire or water. Batteries could rupture or leak, causing fire,
injury or stains around them.
iIf the battery fluid leaks, wipe away any fluid on the
battery case before inserting new batteries. If the battery
fluid gets in an eye, it could cause loss of eyesight. If
fluid does enter an eye, wash it out thoroughly with
clean water without rubbing the eye and then consult a
doctor immediately. If the fluid gets on a persons body
or clothing, it could cause skin injuries or burns. If this
should happen, wash it off with clean water and then
consult a doctor immediately.
iThe unit power should be off when you install and

Mode d'emploi
PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÉCURITÉ
IMPORTANTES
Ce produit est conforme aux impératifs
des directives européennes et autres
règlements de la Commission.
Pour le Canada
THIS CLASS B DIGITAL APPARATUS COMPLIES WITH
CANADIAN ICES-003.
CET APPAREIL NUMÉRIQUE DE LA CLASSE B EST
CONFORME À LA NORME NMB-003 DU CANADA.
INSTRUCTIONS DE SÉCURITÉ
IMPORTANTES
1. Lisez ces instructions.
2. Conservez ces instructions.
3. Tenez compte de tous les avertissements.
4. Suivez toutes les instructions.
5. N'utilisez pas cet appareil avec de l'eau à proximité.
6. Nettoyez-le uniquement avec un chiffon sec.
7. Ne bloquez aucune ouverture de ventilation. Installez-le
conformément aux instructions du fabricant.
8. Ne l'installez pas près de sources de chaleur telles que
des radiateurs, bouches de chauffage, poêles ou autres
appareils (y compris des amplificateurs) dégageant de
la chaleur.
9. Ne neutralisez pas la fonction de sécurité de la fiche
polarisée ou de terre. Une fiche polarisée a deux
broches, l'une plus large que l'autre. Une fiche de terre a
deux broches identiques et une troisième broche pour
la mise à la terre. La broche plus large ou la troisième
broche servent à votre sécurité. Si la fiche fournie
n'entre pas dans votre prise, consultez un électricien
pour le remplacement de la prise obsolète.
10. Évitez de marcher sur le cordon d'alimentation et de
le pincer, en particulier au niveau des fiches, des prises
secteur, et du point de sortie de l'appareil.
11. N'utilisez que des fixations/accessoires spécifiés par le
fabricant.
12. Utilisez-le uniquement avec le
chariot, socle, trépied, support
ou table spécifié par le
fabricant ou vendu avec
l'appareil. Si un chariot est
utilisé, faites attention à ne pas
être blessé par un renversement lors du déplacement
de l'ensemble chariot/appareil.
13. Débranchez cet appareil en cas d'orage ou de non
utilisation prolongée.
14. Confiez toute réparation à des techniciens de
maintenance qualifiés. Une réparation est nécessaire si
l'appareil a été endommagé d'une quelconque façon,
par exemple si le cordon ou la fiche d'alimentation est
endommagé, si du liquide a été renversé sur l'appareil
ou si des objets sont tombés dedans, si l'appareil a été
exposé à la pluie ou à l'humidité, s'il ne fonctionne pas
normalement, ou s'il est tombé.
iL’appareil tire un courant nominal de veille de la prise
secteur quand son interrupteur POWER ou STANDBY/ON
n’est pas en position ON.
iLa fiche secteur est utilisée comme dispositif de
déconnexion et doit donc toujours rester disponible.
iDes précautions doivent être prises en cas d'utilisation
d'écouteurs ou d'un casque avec le produit car une
pression acoustique excessive (volume trop fort) dans
les écouteurs ou dans le casque peut causer une perte
auditive.
iSi vous rencontrez des problèmes avec ce produit,
contactez TEAC pour une assistance technique. N'utilisez
pas le produit tant qu'il n'a pas été réparé.
AVERTISSEMENT
Pour éviter d'éventuels dommages auditifs,
n'écoutez pas de façon prolongée à niveau
sonore élevé.
ATTENTION
iN'exposez pas cet appareil aux gouttes ni aux
éclaboussures.
iNe placez pas d'objet rempli de liquide sur l'appareil,
comme par exemple un vase.
iN’installez pas cet appareil dans un espace confiné
comme une bibliothèque ou un meuble similaire.
iL’appareil doit être placé suffisamment près de la prise
de courant pour que vous puissiez à tout moment
attraper facilement la fiche du cordon d'alimentation.
iSi le produit utilise des piles/batteries (y compris un pack
de batteries ou des batteries fixes), elles ne doivent pas
être exposées au soleil, au feu ou à une chaleur excessive.
iPRÉCAUTION pour les produits qui utilisent des batteries
remplaçables au lithium: remplacer une batterie par
18 TASCAM DR-40X
un modèle incorrect entraîne un risque d'explosion.
Remplacez-les uniquement par un type identique ou
équivalent.
PRÉCAUTIONS CONCERNANT LES PILES
Ce produit utilise des piles. Le mauvais usage des piles peut
provoquer une fuite, une rupture ou d'autres problèmes.
Respectez toujours les précautions suivantes pour l'emploi
de piles.
iNe rechargez jamais des piles non rechargeables. Les
piles peuvent se rompre ou fuir, risquant de causer un
incendie ou des blessures.
iLors de l’installation des piles, faites attention aux
indications de polarité (orientation plus/moins (¥/^))
et installez-les correctement dans le compartiment
des piles comme indiqué. Les installer à l’envers
peut entraîner la rupture ou la fuite des piles, source
d’incendie, de blessure ou de dégât autour d’elles.
iQuand vous rangez ou jetez des piles, isolez leurs bornes
avec de l'adhésif isolant ou avec un matériau équivalent
pour leur éviter d'entrer en contact avec d'autres piles ou
des objets métalliques.
iLorsque vous jetez des piles usagées, suivez les
instructions de mise au rebut indiquées sur les piles et
les lois locales sur l’enlèvement des ordures.
iN'utilisez pas d'autres piles que celles spécifiées. N'utilisez
pas en même temps des piles neuves et usagées, ni des
types de piles différents. Les piles peuvent se rompre ou
fuir, risquant de causer un incendie, des blessures ou des
dégâts autour d’elles.
iNe transportez pas et ne conservez pas des piles à côté
de petits objets métalliques. Les piles peuvent entrer
en court-circuit, provoquant une fuite, une rupture ou
d'autres problèmes.
iNe chauffez et ne démontez pas les piles. Ne les jetez pas
dans un feu ou dans de l’eau. Les piles peuvent se rompre
ou fuir, risquant de causer un incendie, des blessures ou
des dégâts autour d’elles.
iSi le liquide de la pile s’échappe, essuyez tout liquide
répandu dans le boîtier des piles avant d’insérer de
nouvelles piles. Si le liquide d’une pile touche un œil, il
peut entraîner une perte de la vue. Dans ce cas, rincez
abondamment à l’eau claire sans frotter l’œil et consultez
immédiatement un médecin. Si le liquide touche le
corps ou les vêtements d’une personne, il peut entraîner
des blessures ou brûlures cutanées. Si cela se produit,
rincez abondamment à l’eau claire puis consultez
immédiatement un médecin.
iL’alimentation de l’unité doit être coupée quand vous
installez ou remplacez des piles.
iRetirez les piles si vous envisagez de ne pas utiliser
l’unité durant une période prolongée. Les piles peuvent
se rompre ou fuir, risquant de causer un incendie, des
blessures ou des dégâts autour d’elles. Si le liquide de
la pile s’échappe, essuyez tout liquide répandu dans le
boîtier des piles avant d’insérer de nouvelles piles.
iNe démontez pas une pile. L'acide qu'elle contient peut
entraîner des blessures cutanées ou des dommages aux
vêtements.
