Safety copy and anti-virus program

Safety copy It is the responsibility of the user to regularly make safety copies of the data, including but not limited to files, photos, music, etc. It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that this data is available on media which can be immediately transferred back to the BeoMaster or in the event that the BeoMaster is replaced, to the new BeoMaster, and it is the responsibility of the user to reinstall these safety copies when necessary.

A safety copy may be placed on your office computer or any other external devices, such as a portable hard disk, or the data may be copied to CD-roms or DVD discs.

Data must also be safety copied when handing in the BeoMaster for service. Often it will be necessary to format data media as part of the repair and such formatting with the consequential loss of data will take place without notice. Bang & Olufsen cannot be held liable for any loss of data.

Re-installation of data In case you need to re-install your media collection on the BeoMaster, you must use BeoPlayer, BeoPort or BeoConnect (for MAC users only) software to transfer your collection to the BeoMaster. This ensures that you will not lose the associated tag information.

Anti-virus program A virus attack can result in system breakdown and loss of important data. In serious cases the BeoMaster may have to be handed in for service. A repair caused by a virus attack is NOT covered by guarantee. The BeoMaster features an anti- virus program. The program protects against the most commonly used hacker programs. The program is automatically updated for a least five years via the Internet provided that the BeoMaster is constantly connected to the Internet. The program is installed to instantly and without notification remove all files containing a virus. Files transferred to the BeoMaster may be deleted as a result.

Bang & Olufsen cannot be held liable for an loss as a consequence of virus attack.

Always keep copies of your data to ensure that your photos, music files, etc. are

not lost in the event of a system or program failure. BeoMaster 5 features an

anti-virus program that blocks the most common computer viruses.
