The lightning fl ash with
arrowhead symbol, within
an equilateral triangle, is
intended to alert the user
to "dangerous voltage"
and to prevent from a
risk of electric shock.
Please read the manual carefully before installing the receiver.
Caution: Never open the device by yourself. Dangerously high voltages are present inside the unit. Refer
servicing to qualifi ed staff only.
When installing the receiver, always unplug the receiver from the mains voltage.
Unplug the receiver from the mains in case of long periods without operating the receiver (for example,
during holidays!).
To prevent shock hazard, do not touch the power plug with wet hands.
Always unplug the receiver before cleaning it or working on the connections.
Do not install the receiver close to strong heat sources, and ensure a good aeration if you plan to install
the receiver in a small cabinet.
Before you start operating the receiver, make sure that the satellite antenna is properly built up, optimally
connected and aligned.
The correct place to install the receiver is, of course, near your TV set and any other A/V signal sources
(DVD, VCR, CD, game console, etc.).
Choose a stable support, in which you can easily lay the necessary connecting cables without stumbling-
danger.
The receiver should be installed near an easily accessible outlet.
Do not install the receiver in a place where it can be reached by liquid spills.
Do not put any heavy objects as, for example, a TV-device over the receiver; the receiver could be
damaged.
DO NOT INSTALL THE RECEIVER:
- On an unstable surface
- Subject to direct sunlight
- In high humidity environment
- Outside the receiver's temperature range (+5°...+40°C)
If the receiver is subject to severe temperature changes, it can suffer from water condensation inside.
Switch off the receiver in these cases for at least 2 hours before resuming operation.
SAFETY PRECAUTION
Warning:
To reduce the risk of electric shock,
don't open the cabinet. Refer servicing
to qualifi ed personnel only.
