2. SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS

Use of your receiver is subject to safety measures designed to protect users and their environment.

2-1 WHERE TO PUT YOUR TERMINAL?

In order to guarantee the correct operation of your receiver, you must:
• place it indoors to protect it from lightning, rain, and
sun rays,
• place it in a dry and well ventilated area,
• keep it away from heat sources such as radiators,
candles, lamps, etc.
• protect it from dampness, place it on a flat surface from
where it will not fall and is out of reach of the children,
• do not place anything on top of your receiver (as it
would restrict ventilation): the ventilation slots located
on the casing prevent your receiver from overheating.
If you place the receiver in a compartment, leave a
space of at least 10 cm on each side and 20 cm on the
front and back of the receiver,
• connect it directly to the mains with the provided cords,
the socket must be near the receiver and easy to
access. The use of an extension cable (with multi-points) is not recommended.

2-2 WARININGS AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

NEVER OPEN THE RECEIVER OR THE POWER SUPPLY UNIT! YOU RISK GETTING AN ELECTRIC SHOCK.
• Use only the power supply unit supplied with the receiver to connect it to the mains. Other
practice may be dangerous.
• As a precaution, in case of danger, the power supply unit act as a disconnecting mecha-
nism for the 230V power supply. That is why it is imperative that you connect the receiver to a
power outlet located nearby and easily accessible.
• You must imperatively connect the power supply unit to the receiver before connecting the power
supply unit to the power socket.
• To avoid short-circuits (fire or electrocution hazard), do not expose your receiver to dampness. Do
not place any object containing liquid (vase for example) on the appliance. The receiver must not be
splashed with liquid. If liquid is upset onto the receiver, unplug it immediately from the mains and
consult your supplier.
• Take care not to allow liquids or metal objects to enter the receiver through the ventilation slots.
• Avoid reconnecting the receiver after it has been subjected to large changes in temperature.
• The receiver must be disconnected from mains supply (from the power outlet or rear panel) before
any modification of connection between TV, VCR or antenna.
