2. GENERAL INFORMATION

2-1 SAFETY

Use of the Receiver is subject to safety rules designed to protect users and their environment.
Furthermore, to gain full satisfaction and maximum performance from your Receiver, the following must be applied::
- Install the receiver indoors away from sunlight and rain: Avoid extremely hot or cold temperatures. Place the receiver and mains unit
away from sources of heat such as radiators or gas/electric heaters. Do not place incandescent objects such as candles close to the
receiver. It is advisable to unplug the antenna during thunderstorms. Even if the receiver and television are unplugged, they can still
be damaged by lightning.
- Place the receiver and mains unit in a dry and well-ventilated place.
- Protect the receiver from damp: Place the receiver and mains unit away from rain, damp and dust. Do not place plants nearby to
avoid any splashes when they are watered. If liquid seeps into the receiver or power adapter, unplug them from the power socket and
contact your distributor.
- Avoid violent shocks: Never use the receiver if it is damaged. Always place your receiver on a flat surface where there is no risk of
being bumped or knocked. Never open the receiver or power unit! There is a risk of electric shock. All work on the receiver must be
carried out by qualified personnel.
- Only use the power unit that is supplied: Connect it to the mains in compliance with the installation instructions in this booklet and
the indications written in the identification label that is fixed on the appliance (voltage, current, frequency of the electricity network). By
precaution, in case of danger, the power adapters act as a cut-off device for the 230V supply. They must be located close to the
appliance and be easy to access.
- Do not place anything on top of the receiver (as it would restrict ventilation): The ventilation slots located on the casing prevent your
receiver from overheating. Do not place any objects such as a piece of cloth or sheet of paper on top of these slots. If you place the
receiver in a compartment, leave a space of at least 10 cm each side and 20 cm in front and behind the receiver.
- Place the receiver out of reach of children: Batteries are easily swallowed by young children. Therefore, do not leave the remote
control unitwithin their reach.
- Fuse: The plug of the AC lead contains a fuse. If you need to change the fuse, always use the type of fuse indicated on the plug.
